Answer 1

Hello!

An object has a velocity of 8 m/s and a kinetic energy of 480 J. What is the mass of the object?

We have the following data:

KE (Kinetic Energy) = 480 J

m (mass) = ? (in Kg)

v (speed) = 8 m/s

Formula to calculate kinetic energy:

Solving: 15 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

1/2*m*v²

m=1/2*8²

m=32

480÷32

=15kg
