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.
