a body of mass 15 kg possesses kinetic energy of 18.75 kj.find the velocity
Answers
Given,
Mass of body=15 kg
Possessed kinetic energy=18.75 kj=18750 j
Formula,
K.e=1/2mu*u
18750=1/2*15*u*u
U=√2500
=50m/s

Given,
Mass of a body = 15 Kg
Kinetic energy possessed by the body = 18.75 Kj
To find,
The velocity of the body.
Solution,
We can simply solve this numerical problem by using the following process:
Mathematically,
The kinetic energy of a body
= 1/2 × (mass of the body) × (velocity)^2
{Statement-1}
According to the question;
Kinetic energy possessed by the body = 18.75 Kj
=> 1/2 × (mass of the body) × (velocity)^2 = 18.75 Kj
=> (velocity)^2 = (2 × 18750 J)/(15 Kg)
{Since 1 KJ = 1000 J}
=> (velocity)^2 = (37500)/(15) = 2500 = 2500
=> velocity = √2500 = 50
=> velocity of the body = 50 m/s
Hence, the velocity of the body is equal to 50 m/s.
