Good Day

Problem:

A student is hit a 1.5 kg pumpkin pie. The speed of the pie is 8 m/s. What was the kinetic energy of the pie?

Given Data:

m (mass) = 1.5 kg

v (velocity) = 8 m/s

K.E. (kinetic energy) = ? unknown

Solution:

The formula for Kinetic Energy is, K.E. = 1/2mv²

K.E. = 1/2mv²

        = 1/2 × 1.5 kg × (8 m/s)²

        = 1/2 × 1.5 kg × 64 m²/s²

        = 48 kg.m²/s²

        = 48 J

Answer:

48 J or 48 kg.m²/s²

But I stayed good friends with the boy who had been wounded his first day at the front, because he would never know now how he would have turned out; so he could never be accepted either, and I liked him because I thought perhaps he would not have turned out to be a hawk either. B. We were all at the hospital every afternoon, and there were different ways of walking across the town through the dusk to the hospital. Two of the ways were alongside canals, but they were long. C. My knee did not bend and the leg dropped straight from the knee to the ankle without a calf, and the machine was to bend the knee and make it move as riding a tricycle. But it did not bend yet, and instead the machine lurched when it came to the bending part....
