Answer:

The answer is 40 Joules

Step-by-step explanation:

The kinetic energy of a body can be found by using the formula


KE = (1)/(2) {mv}^(2)

where

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question

mass = 5 kg

velocity = 4 m/s

Substitute the values into the above formula and solve

We have


KE = (1)/(2) * 5 * {4}^(2) \\ = (1)/(2) * 5 * 16 \\ = 5 * 8

We have the final answer as

40 Joules

Hope this helps you
