Question

Read the scenario, then answer the questions. A 2 kg ball is thrown upward with a velocity of 15 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the ball as it is being thrown? J

Answer 1

225 J for both answers

Explanation: :)

Answer 2

225 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object can be found by using the formula

`k = (1)/(2) m {v}^(2) \\`

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question we have

`k = (1)/(2) * 2 * {15}^(2) \\ = 1 * 225 \\ = 225 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \:`

We have the final answer as

225 J

Hope this helps you
