Respuesta :

Answer:

v = 16.58 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of a bird, m = 1.6 kg

Kinetic energy of the bird, K = 220 J

We need to find the speed of the bird. The formula for the kinetic energy is given by :

[tex]E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

Where

v is the speed of the bird

So,

[tex]v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2E}{m}}[/tex]

Put all the values,

[tex]v=\sqrt{\dfrac{2\times 220}{1.6}}\\\\v=16.58\ m/s[/tex]

So, the speed of the bird is equal to 16.58 m/s.
