How do you find the speed of an object given its mass and kinetic energy (what is the formula)?
madam [21]
   v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"] ; 
        
and solve for "v".

______________________________________________________
Explanation:
_____________________________________________________
The formula is:  KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;
_____________________________________
  
"Kinetic energy" = (½) * (mass) * (velocity , "squared")
________________________________________________
Note:  Velocity is similar to speed, in that velocity means "speed and direction";  however, if you "square" a negative number, you will get a "positive"; since:  a "negative" multiplied by a "negative" equals a "positive".
____________________________________________
So, we have the formula:
___________________________________
KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  to solve for "(v)" ; velocity, which is very similar to                                          the "speed"; 
___________________________________________________
we arrange the formula ;
__________________________________________________
(KE) = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;  ↔  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE) ; 
___________________________________________________

→ We have:  (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE)  ; we isolate, "m" (mass) on one side of the equation:
______________________________________________________
   
→ We divide each side of the equation by: "[(½)* (m)]" ; 
___________________________________________________
    
           →   [ (½)*(m)*(v²) ] /  [(½)* (m)]  = (KE) / [(½)* (m)]<span> ;
</span>______________________________________________________
 to get: 
______________________________________________________
                           →   v²     =   (KE) / [(½)* (m)]
                     
                           →   v²     = 2 KE / m
_______________________________________________________
Take the "square root" of each side of the equation ;
_______________________________________________________
                          →  √ (v²)  =  √ { 2*(KE) ] / m }
________________________________________________________

                          →     v  =   √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ; 

Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"]; 
       
and solve for "v".

* A 5 kg ball is dropped from a height of 20 m. How much kinetic energy will it have 10 m above the ground? a. 490 J b. 392 J C.
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

A. 490

Explanation:

soln

mass = m = 5kg

Height = h = 10m

Acceleration due to gravity = g = 9.8ms²

K.E = 1/2 × mass × (velocity)²

Recall from equations of motion

v² = u² + 2gh

Therefore,

K.E = 1/2 × mass × ( u² + 2gh)

K.E = 1/2 × 5 × ( 0² + 2×10×9.8)

K.E = 1/2 × 5 × 196

K.E = 1/2 × 980

K.E = 490 Joules

Flasher units are being discussed. Technician A says that only a DOT-approved flasher unit should be used for turn signals. Tech
zmey [24]

Answer: C

Both Technicians A and B

Explanation:

Only a DOT-approved flasher unit should be used for turn signals. And a parallel (variable-load) flasher will function for turn signal usage, although it will not warn the driver if a bulb burns out.

Which has greater kinetic energy, a car traveling at 40 mph or a half-as-massive car traveling at 80 mph?
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

The 80 mph car

Because the formula says 1/2 mass but for the velocity it is squared
