Given :-
- Mass of object is 5kg
- Momentum of object is 10kg m/s
To Find :-
- The kinetic energy of the object.
Answer :-
Given that mass of the body is 5kg and its momentum is 10kg m/s. So , we know a know a relation between mass , momentum and Kinetic energy as ;
⇒ KE = p² / 2m
⇒ KE = ( 10 kg m/s )² / 2* 5kg
⇒ KE = 100 kg²- m² s-² / 10kg
⇒ KE = 10 Joules .
_________________________________
Derivation of used Formula :-
We know that Momentum (p) = mass*velocity
⇒ p = mv .
⇒ p² = m²v²
⇒ v² = p² /m² ............[i]
Also we know that KE = 1/2 mass*(Velocity)²
⇒ KE = ½ mv²
⇒ KE = ½ m ( p²/m²) [ From (i) ]
⇒ KE = p² * ½ * m²/m
⇒ KE = p²/2m .
