Answer:
To have the same kinetic energy the speed of the marble must be 9 times the speed of rock.
Explanation:
The general formula of kinetic energy is given as follows:
[tex]K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}[/tex]
where,
K.E = Kinetic Energy
m = mass of the object
v = speed of the object
So, for the marble and rock to have same kinetic energy, we can write:
[tex]K.E_{marble} = K.E_{rock}\\\\\frac{1}{2}m_{marble}v_{marble}^{2} = \frac{1}{2}m_{rock}v_{rock}^{2}\\\\(0.03\ kg)v_{marble}^{2} = (2.43\ kg)v_{rock}^{2}\\\\taking\ square\ root\ on\ both\ sides:\\v_{marble} = \sqrt{\frac{2.43\ kg}{0.03\ kg}}v_{rock}\\\\v_{marble} = 9\ v_{rock}[/tex]
Hence, to have the same kinetic energy the speed of the marble must be 9 times the speed of rock.
