Answer: 500 joules
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that
Mass of ball = 10kg
kinetic energy = ?
velocity of the ball = 10m/s
Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object. It is measured in joules, and depends on the mass (m) of the object and the velocity (v) by which it moves
i.e K.E = 1/2mv²
K.E = 1/2 x 10kg x (10m/s)²
K.E = 0.5 x 10kg x (10m/s)²
K.E = 5 x 100
K.E = 500 joules
Thus, the kinetic energy of the ball is 500 joules
