Question

A motorcycle weighing 132.5 kg is traveling 16.7 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the motorcycle?

Answer 1

given,

mass = 132.5 kg

velocity=16.7 m/s

kinetic energy = 1/2.mass.velocity.velocity

= 1/2.( 132.5).(16.7).(16.7)

( after removing decimal) = 1/2. 1325/10. 167/10. 167/10

(after multiply 1325by 167by 167)

= 36952925/1000

= 36952.925 joule is the answer...
