The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is given by the equation:
KE = (1/2) * m * v^2
where m is the mass of the object and v is its velocity.
In this case, the ball has a mass of 2 kg and is traveling at 10 m/s. Plugging these values into the equation, we get:
KE = (1/2) * 2 kg * (10 m/s)^2 = (1/2) * 2 kg * 100 m^2/s^2 = 1 kg * 100 m^2/s^2 = 100 Joules
Therefore, the kinetic energy possessed by the ball is 100 Joules.
