If a car is traveling at 32 m/s and has a mass of 2,413, how much
Kinetic Energy does it have? (Round to the nearest tenth)

Answer 1

1235.5J

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of car = 2413kg

Speed of car = 32m/s

Unknown:

Amount of kinetic energy it has = ?

Solution:

Kinetic energy is the energy due to the motion of a body;

Kinetic energy =
`(1)/(2)` m v²

m is the mass

v is the velocity

Now insert the parameters;

Kinetic energy =
`(1)/(2)` x 2413 x 32² = 1235.5J
