the kinetic energyof an object of mass m moving with a velocity of 5m/s is 25j.what will be its kinetic energy when its velocity is doubled?what will be the kinetic energy when its velocity is incresd 3 times?
the K.E(KINETIC ENERGY) of the object is 25 J.
So,
25=1/2*m*(5)2
Therefore,m=2 kg.
Now, when the velocity is doubled=2*5=10 m/s(ms-1)
So,
K.E.=1/2*2*(10)2 =100 J.
Now,when the velocity is increased three times,the velocity will be=3*5=15
Therefore,K.E.=1/2*2*(15)2 = 225 J.
Hope this helps...
