When calculated energy transferred between objects use the definition of heat as
Look out below ! You should step nimbly to one side, to avoid being hit by one or the other of those hazardous weight objects when they arrive (at the same time).
In the question it is already given that the football player is 80 kg.
Then the mass of the football player = 80 kg
Velocity at which the football player is running = 8 m/s
<span>Kinetic Energy = 0.5 • mass • square of velocity
Now we have to put the known data in this equation to find the actual velocity of the footballer.
</span> <span></span>So
Kinetic Energy of the footballer = 0.5 * 80 * (8 * 8)
= 0.5 * 80 * 64
= 2560
So the Kinetic energy of the footballer is 2560 joules
