Answer: 65 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object by virtue of its motion.


K.E.=(1)/(2)m* v^2

K.E= Kinetic energy = ?

m= mass of duck = 0.90 kg

v= velocity of duck=
12ms^(-1)

Putting in the values we get


K.E=(1)/(2)* 0.90kg* (12ms^(-1))^2


K.E=65kgm^2s^(-2)=65Joules


(1kgm^2s^(-2)=1Joule)

Thus kinetic energy of the duck is 65 Joules.
