Detailed Solution finding Kinetic Energy for m = 478 lb, v = 640 mph
Kinetic Energy is the energy an object has owing to its motion. In classical mechanics, kinetic energy (KE) is equal to half of an object's mass (1/2*m) multiplied by the velocity squared.
The formula to calculate Kinetic energy is:
Where,
KE = Kinetic Energy
m = Mass of object
v = velocity
Step by Step Solution to find Kinetic Energy of Mass = 478 lb & Velocity = 640 mph:
Given that,
mass (m) = 478 lb
velocity (v) = 640 mph
⇒ Convert the mass 478 lb to "Kilograms (kg)"
Mass in Kg = 478 ÷ 2.204623
Mass in kg = 216.8171 kg
=> Convert Distance value 640 mph to "meters (m)"
Distance in meters = 640 x 1609
Distance in meters (m) = 286.0975 m
Substitute the value into the formula
KE = 8873430.3916 J
∴ Kinetic Energy (KE) = 8873430.3916 J
KE for m = 478 lb, v = 640 mph Results in different Units
