A 10.0kg animal is running at a rate of 3.0m/s what is the kinetic energy of the animal?
answer s C. if your in Connexus :)
What is the formula for kinetic energy?
Doesn’t give one
KE = 0.5*M*V^2.
ashliipops are you sure
ashliipops is right. just in case the letters get changed its 45.0 J
To calculate the kinetic energy of an object, you can use the formula:
Kinetic Energy = (1/2) * mass * velocity²
In this case, the mass of the animal is 10.0 kg and the velocity is 3.0 m/s. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
Kinetic Energy = (1/2) * 10.0 kg * (3.0 m/s)²
First, let's square the velocity:
Velocity² = (3.0 m/s)² = 9.0 m²/s²
Now, let's substitute the values into the formula:
Kinetic Energy = (1/2) * 10.0 kg * 9.0 m²/s²
Next, multiply the mass by the velocity²:
Kinetic Energy = (1/2) * 10.0 kg * 9.0 m²/s²
= 45.0 kg * m²/s²
Finally, simplify the units:
1 kg * m²/s² is equivalent to 1 Joule (J)
So, the kinetic energy of the 10.0 kg animal running at 3.0 m/s is 45.0 J.
What doesn't give one? Your textbook?
*is
and i know im late sorry
