Question

What is the KE of a 250kg cart as it reaches the bottom if it’s velocity was 22m/s?

Answer 1

Kinetic energy = 60500 J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the cart, m = 250 kg

Velocity of the cart, v = 22 m/s

We need to find the kinetic energy of the cart. This type of energy is possessed due to motion of an object. It can be given by :

`E_k=(1)/(2)mv^2\\\\E_k=(1)/(2)* 250* (22)^2\\\\E_k=60500\ J`

So, the kinetic energy of the cart is 60500 J.
