The NBA is the acronym for National Basketball Association. It comprises of several teams from across United states and Canada in basketball league.

  • The game is played by hand with a target basket.
  • For each successive throw into the basket, 1 or 2 or 3 points can be awarded.

1. Which has more kinetic energy, a 40 kg cheetah running at 25 m/s or a 4,000 kg elephant moving at 2 m/s? How much more energy
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1. The elephant has more kinetic energy at this speed and mass. It has 4,500 J more KE.

2. The elephant would have to go at a speed of 2.5 m/s to reach the same KE as the cheetah.

Explanation:

You would use the formula KE=1/2mv^2.

This formula would be filled in and completed twice, once for the elephant and once for the cheetah.

Cheetah:

KE = 1/2 (40) (25) ^2

KE = 12,500 J

Elephant:

KE = 1/2 (4,000) (2) ^2

KE = 8,000 J

This shows that the cheetah has more KE.

Then you would subtract the elephants amount of J from the cheetahs to find the difference.

Difference = 12,500 J - 8,000 J

Difference = 4,500 J

I hoped this helped with the first part :)

For the second part:

To find the speed the elephant would have to run you would fill in and complete the equation once more with different distance results.

KE = 1/2 (4,000) (2.5) ^2

KE= 12,500 J
