A 11 g plastic ball is moving to the left at 29 m/s. How much work must be done on the ball to cause it to move to the right at 29 m/s ? Express your answer using two significant figures.

Respuesta :

Answer:

4.25 J

Explanation:

Given that

mass of plastic ball = 11 g

Mass of plastic ball = 0.011 kg

velocity of ball = 29 m/s

We know that from work power energy theorem

[tex]W_{all}=Change\ in\ kinetic\ energy\ of\ system[/tex]

We know that kinetic energy of moving mass given as

[tex]KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

Now by pitting the values

[tex]KE=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

[tex]KE=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 0.011\times 29^2[/tex]

KE= 4.25 J

So the work done on the ball is 4.25 J
