Answer:
Kinetic energy = 312.5 joules
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is the energy an object possess due to it motion. Kinetic energy is the work done in accelerating an object. kinetic energy is usually dependent on the mass and the velocity of the body. Energy is a scalar quantity . It has magnitude and no direction.
Mathematically, kinetic energy can be represented as ;
kinetic energy = 1/2 × mass × velocity²
kinetic energy = 1/2 × M × v²
The mass of the body = 25 kg
The velocity of the body = 5 m/s
Kinetic energy = 1/2mv²
Kinetic energy = 1/2 × 25 × 5²
Kinetic energy = 1/2 ×25 × 25
Kinetic energy = 625/2
Kinetic energy = 312.5 joules
