Missy's velocity is 24.5 m/s
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by the object due to its motion. Mathematically, it is given by
[tex]K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]
where
m is the mass of the object
v is its velocity
In this problem, we know:
K = 15000 J is Missy's kinetic energy
m = 50 kg is her mass
Solving for v, we find her velocity:
[tex]v=\sqrt{\frac{2K}{m}}=\sqrt{\frac{2(15000)}{50}}=24.5 m/s[/tex]
