Answer: KE = 62.5J
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of object = 5kg
kinetic energy KE = ?
velocity of object = 5m/s
Since kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves. Therefore, the object has kinetic energy.
i.e K.E = 1/2mv^2
KE = 1/2 x 5kg x (5m/s)^2
KE = 0.5 x 5 x 25
KE = 62.5J
Thus, the object has 62.5 joules of kinetic energy.
