    5.01 J

    Explanation:

    At the top of the cliff, the lemming has potential energy and kinetic energy.

    When it lands, all the energy is converted to kinetic energy.

    Final energy = Initial energy

    KE = PE₀ + KE₀

    KE = mgh + ½ mv₀²

    KE = (0.0780 kg) (9.8 m/s²) (5.36 m) + ½ (0.0780 kg) (4.84 m/s) ²

    KE = 5.01 J
