Given

Mass = 50 kg

Velocity = 12 m/s

Find

The kinetic energy of an object.

Solution

The formula that is used to find the kinetic energy of an object is given by :


K = (1)/(2)mv^(2) \\K = (1)/(2) X 50 X 12^(2) \\K = (1)/(2) X 50 X 144

Answer

= 3, 600 J

Hello there!

Answer:

3600 J

Step-by-step explanation:


E = (mv^2)/(2)

So m = 50 kg and v = 12 m/s then


E = (50 * 12^2)/(2) J = 3600 J
