Suppose the shell has a mass of 1.0 kg and is traveling at 3.0 × 10² m/s. How much TKE does it carry?

Imagine the idealized situation as shown in Figure A for an artillery shell striking an armor plate made of an (imaginary) metal called “armory.” Figure B is the stress–strain diagram for armory. Assume the material diagram shows armory strained to failure.
