A small remote-controlled quadcopter has a mass of 2.4 kg.
It flies at a constant speed of 5.0 m/s.
Calculate the kinetic energy of the quadcopter.
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
