How much kinetic energy does a baseball with a mass of 0.143 kg have it it is traveling at a velocity of 41.1 m/s?
89.7 Joules
108 3 Joules
156.6 Joules
120.8 Joules

Respuesta :

Answer:

E = 120.77 J

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a baseball, m = 0.143 kg

Velocity of a baseball, v = 41.1 m/s

We need to find the kinetic energy of the baseball. We know that the kinetic energy of an object is associated with its motion. It can be given by the formula as follow :

[tex]E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\E=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.143\ kg\times (41.1\ m/s)^2\\E=120.77\ J[/tex]

So, the kinetic energy of the baseball is 120.77 J.

The kinetic energy of the baseball is 120.8 J.

What is kinetic energy?

The kinetic energy of an object is associated with its motion. It can be related to the mass and velocity as

K.E = 1/2 mv²

Given is the Mass of a baseball, m = 0.143 kg and Velocity of a baseball, v = 41.1 m/s

substitute the values, we have

K.E = 1/2 x 0.143 x (41.1)²

K.E =  120.77 J

Hence, the kinetic energy of the baseball is 120.8 J.
