a large truck has a mass of 20000kg. it is traveling at 28m/s along a staright road . calculate the kinetic energy ​

Respuesta :

Answer:

The answer is

7,840,000 J

Explanation:

The kinetic energy KE of an object given it's mass and velocity can be found by using the formula

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} m {v}^{2} \\ [/tex]

where

m is the mass

v is the velocity

From the question

m = 20000kg

v = 28 m/s

It's kinetic energy is

[tex]KE = \frac{1}{2} \times 20000 \times {28}^{2} \\ = 10000 \times 784[/tex]

We have the final answer as

7,840,000 J

Hope this helps you
