Answer : The mass of the bowling ball is 0.9 kilograms.
Solution : Given,
kinetic energy = 1.8 J
Velocity of an object = 2 m/s
Formula used for kinetic energy is,
[tex]K.E=\frac{1}{2}m\times v^2[/tex]
where,
K.E = kinetic energy
m = mass of an object
v = velocity of an object
Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the mass of the bowling ball.
[tex](1.8J)=\frac{1}{2}m\times (2m/s)^2[/tex]
[tex](1.8\text{ Kg }m^2s^{-2})=\frac{1}{2}m\times (2m/s)^2[/tex]
[tex](1J=1\text{ Kg }m^2s^{-2})[/tex]
[tex]m=0.9Kg[/tex]
Therefore, the mass of the bowling ball is 0.9 kilograms.
