What velocity at 60.0 kg jogger a kinetic energy 1,080?
To find the velocity of a jogger with a kinetic energy of 1,080 Joules and a mass of 60.0 kg, we can use the formula for kinetic energy:
Kinetic energy (KE) = 0.5 * mass * velocity^2
First, rearrange the formula to solve for velocity:
velocity = √(2 * KE / mass)
Substitute the given values into the formula:
velocity = √(2 * 1080 / 60)
Simplify the equation inside the square root:
velocity = √(36)
Finally, calculate the square root:
velocity = 6 m/s
Therefore, the velocity of the 60.0 kg jogger with a kinetic energy of 1,080 Joules is 6 m/s.
Solve the equation
1080 = (1/2) M V^2
to obtain V.
I have assumed the 1080 energy number is in joules.
