Two objects of same material are travelling near you. Object A is a 1.4 kg mass traveling 14.2 m/s; object B is a 2 kg mass traveling 5 m/s. Which object would make you feel worse if you are hit by it?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Object A

Explanation:

given,

Object A

mass,m₁ = 1.4 Kg

speed of the car,v₁ = 14.2 m/s

object B

mass,m₂ = 2 Kg

speed,v₂ = 5 m/s

Kinetic energy of the object will be absorbed by you when it hit you.

[tex]KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}mv_1^2[/tex]

[tex]KE_1 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 1.4 \times 14.2^2[/tex]

   KE₁ = 141.148 J

kinetic energy of the object B

[tex]KE_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}m_2v_2^2[/tex]

[tex]KE_2 = \dfrac{1}{2}\times 2 \times 5^2[/tex]

    KE₂ = 25 J

Hence, the Object A will feel worse if hit you because of the kinetic energy of the object A is more.
