Since the object has a relativistic velocity we need to find the relativistic total energy as follows:
E=Ξ³mc2=1βc2v2ββmc2β.We can find the velocity of the object as follows:
p=mv,v=mpβ=6.3 kg11.5Γ106 skgΓmββ=18.25Γ105 smβ.Then, we have:
E=1β(3Γ108 smβ)2(18.25Γ105 smβ)2ββ6.3 kgΓ(3Γ108 smβ)2β=5.67Γ1017 J.
