Potential and Kinetic Energy

Question 71893 • Fall 24 GSE Physical Science B IC

A conveyer belt moves a 40 kg box at a velocity of 2 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the box while it is on the conveyor belt?

Answer
A
40 J
B
80 J
C
160 J
D
1,600 J

Explanation

Kinetic energy is calculated using KE = ½mv². For a 40 kg box moving at 2 m/s, KE = ½ × 40 × 2² = 80 J, so the answer is 80 J.
