Answer:

Kinetic energy, K = 14.97 J

Step-by-step explanation:

We have,

Mass of the object, m = 5.2 kg

Velocity of the object, v = 2.4 m/s

It is required to find the kinetic energy of the object. As it is moving with some velocity, it will have kinetic energy. It is given by :


K=(1)/(2)mv^2\\\\K=(1)/(2)* 5.2* (2.4)^2\\\\K=14.97\ J

So, the kinetic energy of the object is 14.97 J.
