workdone by force on a moving object is 200J. it was travelling at a speed of 5m/s find the new speed of the object if the mass of the object is 5kg

Respuesta :

Answer:

10.2 m/s

Explanation:

Work-energy theorem says that the work done is equal to the change in kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is half the mass times the square of the speed.

W = KE − KE₀

W = ½ mv² − ½ mv₀²

W = ½ m (v² − v₀²)

2W / m = v² − v₀²

v² = v₀² + 2W / m

Plugging in values:

v² = (5 m/s)² + 2 (200 J) / (5 kg)

v = 10.2 m/s
