The neighbor's cat ran through your yard. The cat has a mass of 5 kg. He is running at a speed of 3 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the cat as he runs?
8.5 J
45 J
7.5 J
22.5 J
What is the kinetic energy formula?
KE = mass x speed
KE = 1/2 x mass x speed
KE = 1/2 x mass x speed2
KE = distance / time
Is there more kinetic energy when a roller coaster is at the top of a hill or when it has reached the bottom of the hill?
Top of the hill
Bottom of the hill
Same kinetic energy at both points
This is not an example of kinetic energy
