A 2kg ball is thrown upward with a velocity of 15 m/s what is the kinetic energy of the ball being thrown?

Kinetic Energy, or K.E is equal to 1/2 times the mass of an object times the velocity squared.

Therefore K.E

= (1)/(2) * 2 * {15}^(2)
which is 225

Energy is expressed in joules (J)
so the K.E of the ball is 225J

Hope this helped
