Answer:


0.598\:\mathrm{J}}

Step-by-step explanation:

The kinetic energy of a golf ball is given by
KE=(1)/(2)mv^2.

Since the golf ball is given in grams, we must convert to kilograms, as the SI unit of mass is kilograms.


46.0\:\mathrm{g}=0.046\:\mathrm{kg}

Substituting given values, we have:


KE=(1)/(2)\cdot 0.046\cdot 5.10^2=\boxed{0.598\:\mathrm{J}}
