Q:
The kinetic energy of an object can be determined
using the equation KE = 1/2mv^2, where ke is the
kinetic energy, m is the mass, and v is the speed of
the object. What is the mass of an object moving at
a speed of 12m/s that has 36 J of kinetic energy?

A:

0
2.0 kg
8.0 kg
0.13 kg
0.50 kg

Q The kinetic energy of an object can be determined using the equation KE 12mv2 where ke is the kinetic energy m is the mass and v is the speed of the object Wh class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

Explanation:

We will use the KE equation you wrote here and fill in what we are given:

[tex]36=\frac{1}{2}m(12)^2[/tex] and isolating the m:

[tex]m=\frac{2(36)}{12^2}[/tex] which gives us

m = .50 kg
