Answer:
13.66 kJ
Explanation:
Given that
Mass of Pam, m = 40.4 kg
Distance moved by the force, d = 26.7 m
Speed attained by Pam, v = 26 m/s
The kinetic energy is given by the formula, K.E = 1/2 mv², where
K.E = the needed kinetic energy
m = mass of the object(Pam)
v = velocity of the object(Pam)
Applying the formula, we have
K.E = 1/2 * 40.4 * 26²
K.E = 20.2 * 676
K.E = 13655.2 J
The Kinetic Energy is 13.66 kJ
