A missle is flying at a speed 125 m/s. if the missle has a mass of 125 kg. What’s it’s kinetic energy

Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

$976562.5\ Joules$

Explanation:

$We\ are\ given:\\The\ mass\ of\ the\ missile=125\ kg\\The\ velocity\ of\ the\ missile=125\ m/s\\Hence,\\As\ we\ know\ that,\\Kinetic\ energy\ possessed\ by\ an\ object\ with\ mass\ m\ moving\\ with\ a\ velocity\ v:\\E_k=\frac{1}{2}mv^2\\Here,\\The\ Kinetic\ Energy\ possessed\ by\ the\ missile=\frac{1}{2}*125*(125)^2=976562.5\ Joules$

Are sinkhole fatalities common?

Brut [27]

Answer:

Sinkhole fatalities are rare, but they do occur sometimes. Also fatalities are more likely where sinkholes are common. For example, sinkholes are more common in Florida than in California, so you would more likely die from a sinkhole in Florida than you would in California.

Hope this helps!
