Question
**Physics Problem: Motion and Kinetic Energy**

**Problem Statement:**

A 5.77-kg object passes through the origin at time \( t = 0 \) such that its \( x \) component of velocity is 5.25 m/s and its \( y \) component of velocity is \(-3.21\) m/s.

**(a)** What is the kinetic energy of the object at this time?
- [Input Field] J 

**(b)** At a later time \( t = 2.00 \) s, the particle is located at \( x = 8.50 \) m and \( y = 5.00 \) m. What constant force acted on the object during this time interval?
- Magnitude: [Input Field] N
- Direction: [Input Field] ° measured from the \(+x\) axis

**(c)** What is the speed of the particle at \( t = 2.00 \) s?
- [Input Field] m/s

**Guidance:**

To find solutions for the above questions, use the following physics principles:

1. **Kinetic Energy:**
   \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 \]
   Calculate the velocity magnitude from the components using:
   \[ v = \sqrt{(v_x)^2 + (v_y)^2} \]

2. **Force Calculation:**
   Use kinematic equations and Newton's second law to determine the force needed to move the particle from the origin to the given position in the stated time interval.

3. **Speed at \( t = 2 \) s:**
   Recalculate the speed using the new velocity components found from the change in location and elapsed time.
