Question

A 700-kg vehicle is traveling at a speed of 6 m/s. How much kinetic energy does it have?

Answer 1

Answer: 12600 Joules

Step-by-step explanation: Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion.

It is calculated by the formula:

`{\text{Kinetic energy}}=(1)/(2)* mv^2`

m= mass of the body

v= velocity

`{\text{Kinetic energy}}=(1)/(2)* 700 kg* {6m/s}^2=12,600kgm^(2)s^(-2)=12,600Joules`

`1Joule=1kgm^(2)s^(-2)`
