- The kinetic energy E of an object varies jointly with the object’s mass m and the square of the object’s velocity v . An object with a mass of 50 kilograms traveling at 16 meters per second has a kinetic energy of 6400 joules. What is the kinetic energy of an object with a mass of 70 kilograms traveling at 20 meters per second?arrow_forwardEstimate the age of a newly discovered fossil for which the ratio of carbon-14 to carbon-12 is R=1/1014.arrow_forwardUse the total differential to approximate each quantity. Then use a calculator to approximate the quantity, and give the absolute value of the differences in the two results to 4decimal places. 1.03e0.04.arrow_forward
