A man of mass 90kg is moving at a constant velocity.He has kinetic energy of 2205j.Calculate his velocity
1/2 mv^2=KE
v= sqrt (2* KE/mass)
It's so helpful
Thanks alot

Basic science
To calculate the velocity of the man, we can use the formula for kinetic energy:
Kinetic energy (KE) = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2
Given that the man has a mass of 90 kg and a kinetic energy of 2205 J, we can rearrange the formula to solve for velocity:
2205 J = 1/2 * 90 kg * velocity^2
Let's solve this equation step by step:
Step 1: Multiply the mass and the velocity squared.
2205 J = 1/2 * 90 kg * velocity^2
2205 J = 45 kg * velocity^2
Step 2: Divide both sides of the equation by 45 kg.
(2205 J) / (45 kg) = (45 kg * velocity^2) / (45 kg)
49 m/s = velocity^2
Step 3: Take the square root of both sides of the equation.
√(49 m/s) = √(velocity^2)
7 m/s = velocity
Therefore, the velocity of the man is 7 m/s.
