Answer:

12J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass  = 1.5kg

Impulse  = 6kgm/s

 let us start first by find the velocity with which this body moves;

       Impulse  = mass x velocity

         Velocity  = Impulse /  mass  = 6/ 1.5  = 4m/s

Initial velocity  = 0m/s

Unknown:

Resulting kinetic energy  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem use the formula below:

      K.E  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  m (v  - u)²  

m is the mass

v is the final velocity

u is the initial velocity

  So;

        K.E  =  [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  x 1.5 x (4 - 0)²  

  K.E  = 1.5 x 8  = 12J
