2001240Determine the specific kinetic energy of a mass whose velocity is 40 m/s, in kJ/kg.

Answered by admin @



Answer:

The specific kinetic energy of a mass is 0.8 kJ/kg

Explanation:

Given that,

Velocity = 40 m/s

Specific kinetic energy is the kinetic energy per unit mass.

We need to calculate the specific kinetic energy

Using formula of specific kinetic energy

K.E=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}{m}

K.E=\dfrac{v^2}{2}

Put the value into the formula

K.E=\dfrac{40^2}{2}

K.E=800\ J/kg

We know that,

1 kJ = 1000 J

or, 1J=0.001 KJ

The specific energy is

K.E=800\times0.001

K.E=0.8\ kJ/kg

Hence, The specific kinetic energy of a mass is 0.8 kJ/kg
