Answer:
48 J
Explanation:
Kinetic energy can be found using the following formula:

where <em>m </em>is the mass in kilograms and <em>v </em>is the velocity in m/s.
We know the mass is 24 kilograms and the velocity is 2 m/s Therefore, substitute 24 in for <em>m </em>and 2 in for <em>v. </em>

Evaluate the exponent first. 2^2 is the same as multiply 2, 2 times.
2^2=2*2=4

Multiply 24 and 4

Multiply 96 and 1/2, or divide 96 by 2.

Add appropriate units. Kinetic energy uses Joules, or J

The kinetic energy is 48 Joules
