A 1.5 kg bird is gliding at a height of 12 m with a speed of 3.8m/s. The kinetic energy of the bird is 10.83 joules.
Explanation:
Kinetic energy can be defined as,The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that the object possesses due to its motion.
The Kinetic energy can be calculated by using formula,
Kinetic Energy: KE = 1/2 (mv 2)
Where, m = Mass, v = Velocity.
Here in this case the bird mass is 1.5kg and is gliding with velocity 3.8m/s
hence, KE= 1/2*(1.5)×(3.8)^2
=0.5×1.5×3.8×3.8
=10.83Joules
Gravity acts to influence the vertical motion of the projectile, thus causing a vertical acceleration. The horizontal motion of the projectile is the result of the tendency of any object in motion to remain in motion at constant velocity.
