Question

What is the kinetic energy of a 5 kg fish swimming at 6 km/h?
*Please show work*

Answer 1

\[K=\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }mv^2\]
Probably ought to convert 6 km/h to m/s

Answer 2

Thank you . So K=1/2 mv^2 Is the answer ?

Answer 3

no that's the formula. You need to plug the number in.
m = 5 kg
For v, you have to convert 6 km/h to m/s before using it in the formula.

Answer 4

Lol. So what's the answer? Im in a bit of a rush .

Answer 5

@peachpi ..

Answer 6

In the fromula\[K=\frac{ 1 }{ 2 }mv^2\],
K stands for kinetic energy, m stand for mass, and v stands for velocity.

From your given information, the mass is 5 kg, and the velocity is 6 km/h, or 5/3 m/s

Answer 7

So the answer would be : K= 30 kg ? Or Am I doing something wrong ? @anthonyym

Answer 8

30 is not the correct value, and kg isn't a unit of energy. Do you still want help on this?

Answer 9

k=?

Answer 10

given mass m=10kg

Answer 11

velocity v=6km/h=?m/s

Answer 12

u know 1 km=1000m

Answer 13

1 h=3600sec

Answer 14

so v=6*1000m/3600sec=?

Answer 15

u hv to try to understand the fact

Answer 16

not try to get the result ony

Answer 17

K = 1/2 m v^2

K = 1/2 ( 5 ) ( 6 )^2
K = 1/2 ( 5 ) ( 36 )
K = 90

Answer 18

@Reemj:
Your answer is NOT correct. You can't just plug the numbers without the units.
PLEASE READ AND UNDERSTAND the content of other people's responses; the responses above contain corrections for the difference between km/hr and m/s.
PLEASE READ the Code of Conduct, and try to help the questioner learn something, instead of handing out an answer that gives no clarity.
PLEASE CONSIDER the context -- the question has been ignored by the questioner for 5 days, after much insistence that he/she was in a rush.
