15) Food Fight! Someone throws a perfectly good hamburgeracross the cafeteria. What velocity does it experience if ithas a mass of 0.35 kg and has 79 Joules of kineticenergy?

Respuesta :

Given:

Mass, m = 0.35 kg

Kinetic energy, K.E = 79 J

Let's find the velocity.

To solve for the velocity, apply the formula below:

[tex]K.E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

Where m is the mass, v is the velocity and K.E is the kinetic energy in Joules.

Rewrite the formula for v:

[tex]v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2(K\mathrm{}E)}{m}}[/tex]

Input values into the equation:

Thus, we have:

[tex]\begin{gathered} v=\sqrt[]{\frac{2(79)}{0.35}} \\ \\ v=\sqrt[]{\frac{158}{0.35}} \\ \\ v=\sqrt[]{415.429} \\ \\ v=21.25\text{ m/s} \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore, the velocity is 21.25 meters per second(m/s).

ANSWER:

21.25 m/s
