A wandering albatross is performing a dynamic soaring maneuver close to the ocean surface at a steady speed of 14 m/s.
The albatross has a mass of 8.5 kg.
Calculate the kinetic energy of the albatross.
Use the equation:
kinetic energy=0.5×mass×(speed)2 \text{kinetic energy} = 0.5 \times \text{mass} \times (\text{speed})^2 kinetic energy=0.5×mass×(speed)2
