Kinetic Energy Prob
terms and definitions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is the kinetic energy of a jogger with a mass of 65.0 kg traveling at a speed of 2.5 m/s? | m=65 KE= 1/2(65) ⋅ (2.5)2 |
| v=2.5 32.5 ⋅ 6.25 | |
| KE= 203.125 KE= 203.125 J | |
| What is the mass of a baseball that has a kinetic energy of 105 J and is traveling at 10 m/s? | KE= 100J m= (2⋅100)/5 2 |
| V=5 m= 200/25 | |
| m=8 m= 8 | |
| What is the kinetic energy of a 0.5 kg soccer ball that is traveling at a speed of 3 m/s? | m=0.5 KE= 1/2(0.5) ⋅ (3 2) |
| v= 3 KE= 0.25 ⋅ 9 | |
| KE= 2.25 J | |
| a runner has a mass of 120kg and a speed of 2m/s. What is the runner's kinetic energy? | 240 Joules |
| What is the kinetic energy of a 2,000 boat moving at 5.0 m/s? | KE= 1/2(2,000) ⋅ 5(5) |
| 1000 ⋅ 25 | |
| KE= 25,000 J | |
| You serve a volleyball with a mass of 2.1 kg. The ball leaves your hand with a speed of 30 m/s. The ball has Kinetic energy. Calculate it. | KE = 1/2mv2 |
| KE = ? J | |
| m = 2.1 kg | |
| v = 30m/s | |
| KE = ½ x 2.1 kg x (30m/s)2 | |
| KE = 945 J |
