Question
What is the Kinetic Energy of a 150 kg object that is moving with a speed of 15 m/s?
A 2250J
B 33750J
C 1125J
D 16875J
Solution
The kinetic energy (KE) of an object can be calculated using the formula:
KE = 1/2 * m * v^2
where: m is the mass of the object, and v is the speed of the object.
Given: m = 150 kg v = 15 m/s
Substituting these values into the formula gives:
KE = 1/2 * 150 kg * (15 m/s)^2 = 0.5 * 150 kg * 225 (m^2/s^2) = 16875 Joules
So, the kinetic energy of the object is 16875 Joules. Therefore, the correct answer is D. 16875J.
