Answer: 40 Joules

Explanation: Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion.

Kinetic energy depends on the mass and speed of the object.

\(K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times mv^2\)

m= mass of canoe = 20 kg

v= speed of canoe = 2 m/s

\(K.E=\frac{1}{2}\times 20kg\times (2m/s)^2\)

\(K.E=40kgm^2s^-{2}=40Joules\)

\((1kgm^2s^{-2}= 1Joule)\)
