To calculate the uncertainty in the calculated potential and kinetic energy values shown in the table, let's analyze the quantities involved.

### 1. Uncertainty in Potential Energy
The potential energy \(PE\) is given by:
\[
PE = m \cdot g \cdot h
\]
where:
- \(m\) is the mass of the object (assumed constant, so its uncertainty can be considered negligible if not given),
- \(g\) is the gravitational constant (\(9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2\), usually with negligible uncertainty),
- \(h\) is the height with uncertainty.

Given the uncertainty in height \( \Delta h = 0.01 \, \text{m}\), the uncertainty in potential energy \( \Delta PE\) can be calculated using:
\[
\Delta PE = PE \cdot \frac{\Delta h}{h}
\]

### 2. Uncertainty in Kinetic Energy
The kinetic energy \(KE\) is given by:
\[
KE = \frac{1}{2} m v^2
\]
where:
- \(v\) is the velocity with uncertainty.

The uncertainty in kinetic energy \( \Delta KE\) due to the uncertainty in velocity \( \Delta v = 0.001 \, \text{m/s}\) can be calculated as:
\[
\Delta KE = KE \cdot \frac{2 \Delta v}{v}
\]

If you provide the mass \(m\) or any further information about it, I can help compute the exact uncertainties for each potential and kinetic energy value. Let me know if you want the calculations with hypothetical values.
