Answer:

The kinetic energy is 90750 J.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Mass of the motorcycle is,
m=375\ kg

Velocity of the motorcycle is,
v=22\ m/s

Kinetic energy of the motorcycle is given as:


KE=(1)/(2)mv^2

Plug in 375 for
m, 22 for
v and solve for kinetic energy,
KE. This gives,


KE=(1)/(2)* 375* 22^2=(1)/(2)* 375* 484=90750\ J

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the motorcycle is 90750 J.
