Question

What is the kinetic energy of a golf ball with a mass of 0.046 kg traveling at 15.5 m/s?

Answer 1

Answer:

5.53 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object can be found by using the formula

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

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question we have

$k = \frac{1}{2} \times 0.046 \times {15.5}^{2} \\ = 0.023 \times 240.25 \\ = 5.52575$

We have the final answer as

5.53 J

Hope this helps you
