Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

$976562.5\ Joules$

Explanation:

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