3. Missy Diwater, the former platform diver for the Ringling Brother's Circus, had a kinetic energy of 12,000 ) just prior to hitting the bucket of water. If Missy's mass is 40 kg, then what is her speed?​

Respuesta :

Answer:

v = 24.49[m/s]    

Explanation:

We must remember that kinetic energy can be calculated by means of a mathematical expression, which relates kinetic energy to mass and velocity

[tex]E_{kin}=\frac{1}{2}*m*v^{2} \\[/tex]

where:

Ekin = kinetic energy = 12000 [J]

m = mass = 40 [kg]

v = velocity [m/s]

[tex]12000=\frac{1}{2} *40*v^{2}\\24000=40*v^{2}\\600=v^{2}\\v=\sqrt{600}\\v=24.49[m/s][/tex]
