Question

A goose is flying south for the winter at a constant speed. Keep in mind that one mile is 1.61 km , and one pound is 454 g .
The goose has a mass of 19.8lb  (pounds) and is flying at 10.1miles/h  (miles per hour). What is the kinetic energy of the goose in joules? A goose is flying south for the winter at a constant speed.

Explanation / Answer

mass in kg

= 19.8*0.454 kg

=8.9892 kg

and vellocity in m /s

= 10.1*1.61 *5/18

= 4.52 m/s

also kinetic energy =0.5mv^2

=0.5*8.9892*4.52^2 j

= 91.70 J
