Question

10. Calculate the kinetic energy of a running back that has a mass of 80 kg and

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is

2560 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object given it's mass and velocity can be found by using the formula

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

where

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question

m = 80 kg

v = 8 m/s

The kinetic energy is

$KE = \frac{1}{2} \times 80 \times {8}^{2} \\ = 40 \times 64$

We have the final answer as

2560 J

Hope this helps you
