Answer:
The velocity of the shot put is 100m/s.
Explanation:
To calculate the velocity of the shot put, we can use the formula for kinetic energy:
Kinetic Energy (KE) = 1/2×mass×velocity²
Given that the kinetic energy (KE) is 2500 joules and the mass is 500 grams (which is 0.5kg), we can rearrange the formula to solve for velocity:
Velocity² = 2×KE/mass
Velocity² = 2×2500/0.5
Velocity² = 5000/0.5
Velocity² = 10000
Taking the square root of both sides to solve for velocity:
Velocity =√10000
Velocity=100m/s
So, the velocity of the shot put is 100m/s.
