What is k.E of. The body mass 5 kg and is its momentum 15kg m/s
Answers
given that,
mass of a body = 5 kg
momentum of a body = 15 kgm/s
K.E of the body = ?
Formula
K.E=P²/2m
by substuting the data in the formula
K.E = (15)²/2×5
= 225 / 10
= 22.5 J (or) 22.5×10^7 erg
Kinetic energy of the body is 22.5 Joule.
Explanation:
- Kinetic energy is defined as a form of energy in which an object or a particle has by reason for its motion.
- When work transfers energy, It is done on an object by applying a force on the object which speeds up and thus gains kinetic energy.
- Kinetic energy is an expression which shows the fact that a moving object can perform work if anything hits on.
Given the mass of a body = 5 kg
momentum of a body = 15 kgm/s
K.E of the body = ?
Formula
by substituting he data in the formula
K.E = ×
K.E
K.E
Kinetic energy of the body is 22.5 Joule.
