Tor kinetic energy, which is the energy that the movement of an object generates. Kinetic energy can be calculated with
the formula
Kg = }(mass of object)(velocity of object)?
where mass is in kilograms and velocity is in meters/second.
Suppose the hardest a high school pitcher can throw a baseball is 35
meters/second (roughly 78 miles/hour). If the mass of the baseball is 0.145
kilograms, which inequality symbolizes the velocity of the baseball?
