Let's take the initial mass of the object = m
velocity = v
initial KE = 1/2 mv² = 0.5mv²

Now the velocity is trippled
V = 3v
mass is cut in half
M = 0.5m
final KE = 1/2 MV² = 1/2 x (0.5m) x (3v)² =9/4 mv² = 2.25 mv²

Change in KE = 2.25mv² - 0.5mv² = 1.75mv²
% change = (Change in KE/initial KE) x 100
                 = (1.25mv²/0.5mv²) x 100
                 = (1.25/0.5) x 100
                 =250%

Change in kinetic energy is 250%

Hope it helps!

n outer space, a constant net force with a magnitude of 140 N is exerted on a 32.5 kg probe initially at rest. A) What accelerat
musickatia [10]

Answer:

a) 4.31 m/s²

b) 215.5 m

Explanation:

a) According to Newton's first law of motion

The net force applied to particular mass produced acceleration, a, according to

F = ma

F = 140 N

m = 32.5 kg

a = ?

140 = 32.5 × a

a = 140/32.5 = 4.31 m/s²

b) Using the equations of motion, we can obtain the distance travelled by the object in t = 10 s

u = initial velocity of the probe = 0 m/s (since it was initially at rest)

a = 4.31 m/s²

t = 10 s

s = distance travelled = ?

s = ut + at²/2

s = 0 + (4.31×10²)/2 = 215.5 m
