Solution

The kinetic energy (KE) of an object can be calculated using the formula:

KE = 1/2 * m * v^2

where: m is the mass of the object (in kg) v is the speed of the object (in m/s)

Substituting the given values into the formula:

KE = 1/2 * 130 kg * (5 m/s)^2 KE = 1/2 * 130 kg * 25 m^2/s^2 KE = 1625 Joules

So, the correct answer is A.1625 J.
