Answer:

Kinetic energy =1/2mv^2

Where m is the mass of the object. V is the velocity

K.E=0.5(8*5^2)

K.E=100J

Car X traveled 3d distance in t time. Car Y traveled 2d distance in t time. Therefore, the speed of car X, is 3d/t, the speed of car Y, is 2d/t. Since speed is the distance taken in a given time.

In figure-2, they are at the same place, we are asked to find car Y's position when car X is at line-A. We can calculate the time car X needs to travel to there. Let's say that car X reaches line-A in t' time.

$V_x .t' = 3d\\ \frac{3d}{t} .t' = 3d\\ t'=t$

Okay, it takes t time for car X to reach line-A. Let's see how far does car Y goes.

$V_y.t = \frac{2d}{t} .t = 2d$

We found that car Y travels 2d distance. So, when car X reaches line-A, car Y is just a d distance behind car X.

A 0.14 -kg baseball is moving at 41 m/s. A 0.058-kg tennis ball is moving at 67 m/s. Which of the two balls has higher kinetic e

Iteru [2.4K]

Since kinetic energy is a form of energy using the equation KE=¹/₂mv², the units of measurement is in Joules (J). Therefore, the tennis ball had more kinetic energy than the baseball since velocity is a larger factor than the mass is when determining kinetic energy.
