Step-by-step explanation:

To do work, this truck uses energy stored in chemical fuel and an electrical battery.

How much total energy does this truck put out?

50 J

250 J

400 J

800 J

Because all you have to do to find initial energy is add up all the energy that was was used up in different forms.

Kinetic Energy 400 J

Heat Energy 250 J

Friction Energy 150 J

Total Initial Energy 800 J
