Acceleration = (change in speed) / (time for the change)

Change in speed = (speed at the end) minus (speed at the beginning)

Change in speed = (zero) minus (10 m/s) = negative 10 m/s

Acceleration = (-10 m/s) / (5 sec)

Acceleration of the Ferrari = -2 m/s²

Democratically, it doesn't have to be a Ferrari. If my 16-yr-old Dodge is going 10 m/s and stops in 5 sec, its acceleration would be the same number.

10 m/s divided by 5 s

-2m/s/s

minus - deceleration

A 2kg mass is moving at 3m/s. What is its kinetic energy?

Illusion [34]

<h2><u>KINETIC ENERGY</u></h2>

<h3>Problem:</h3>

» A 2kg mass is moving at 3m/s. What is its kinetic energy?

<h3>Answer:</h3>

$\color{hotpink} \bold{9 \: J} \\$

— — — — — — — — — —

<h3>Formula:</h3>

To calculate the velocity of a kinetic energy, we can use formula

$\underline{ \boxed{ \tt KE = \frac{1}{2} m{v}^{2} } }$

where,

v is the velocity in m/s
KE is the kinetic energy in J (joules)
m is the mass in kg

— — —

Based on the problem, the givens are:

KE (Kinetic energy) = ? (unknown)
m (mass) = 2 kg
v (velocity) = 3 m/s

<h3>Solution:</h3>

To get the velocity, substitute the givens in the formula above then solve.

$\: \: \tt KE = \frac{1}{2} m{v}^{2} \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \tt \: KE = \frac{1}{2} \times 2 \times {(3)}^{2} \\ \tt \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: KE = \frac{1}{2} \times(2\times 9) \\ \tt KE = \underline{ \boxed{ \blue{ \tt9 \: J}}}$

Therefore, the kinetic energy is 9 Joules.
