Question

‏Calculate the kinetic energies of the following objects moving at the given speeds : ( a ) a 91 kg football linebacker running at 8.9 m / s ; ( b ) a 4,9 g bullet at 807 m / s ; ( C ) Carrier Moritz , 91,400 metric tons at 23 knots . ( 1 metric ton - 1000 kg , 1 knot - 0.514 m / s )

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

KE = ½mv²

a) KE = ½(91)(8.9²) = 3,604.055 = 3.6 kJ

b) KE = ½(0.0049)(807²) = 1,595.56005 = 1.6 kJ

c) KE = ½(91 400 000)(23(0.514))² = 6,387,017,558.8 = 6.4 GJ
