Answer:
[tex]0.598\:\mathrm{J}}[/tex]
Explanation:
The kinetic energy of a golf ball is given by [tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex].
Since the golf ball is given in grams, we must convert to kilograms, as the SI unit of mass is kilograms.
[tex]46.0\:\mathrm{g}=0.046\:\mathrm{kg}[/tex]
Substituting given values, we have:
[tex]KE=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 0.046\cdot 5.10^2=\boxed{0.598\:\mathrm{J}}[/tex]
