<span>The formula to find the kinetic energy of an object is:

KE = 1/2 MV^2

So if we plug in the information
1/2 x 1500 x 5^2
1/2 x 1500 x 25
750 x 25
Car 1 has a KE of 18750

If needed you can find the other three on your own. It'd be good practice.

The answer is car 1.</span>

Answer:

The first car has the most kinetic energy.

Explanation:

Given that,

For first car

Mass of car = 1500 kg

Speed of car = 5 m/s

For second car

Mass of car = 1300 kg

Speed of car = 3 m/s

For third car

Mass of car = 1200 kg

Speed of car = 2 m/s

For fourth car

Mass of car = 1400 kg

Speed of car = 4 m/s

The kinetic energy is defined as,

$K.E=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2$

Where, m = mass

v = velocity

The kinetic energy of first car,

$K.E =\dfrac{1}{2}\times1500\times(5)^2$

$K.E=18750\ J$

The kinetic energy of second car,

$K.E =\dfrac{1}{2}\times1300\times(3)^2$

$K.E=5850\ J$

The kinetic energy of third car,

$K.E =\dfrac{1}{2}\times1200\times(2)^2$

$K.E=2400\ J$

The kinetic energy of fourth car,

$K.E =\dfrac{1}{2}\times1400\times(4)^2$

$K.E=11200\ J$

Therefore, The first car has 18750 J kinetic energy.

Hence, The first car has the most kinetic energy.

Answer: $F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}$

Explanation:

According to Newton's law of universal gravitation:

$F=G\frac{m_{1}m_{2}}{r^2}$

Where:

$F$ is the module of the force exerted between both bodies

$G$ is the universal gravitation constant.

$m_{1}$ and $m_{2}$ are the masses of both bodies.

$r$ is the distance between both bodies

In this case we have two situations:

1) Two bags with masses $4M$ and $4M$ mutually exerting a gravitational attraction $F_{1}$ on each other:

$F_{1}=G\frac{(4M)(4M)}{r^2}$ (1)

$F_{1}=G\frac{16M^2}{r^2}$ (2)

$F_{1}=16\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ (3)

2) Two bags with masses $2M$ and $6M$ mutually exerting a gravitational attraction $F_{2}$ on each other (assuming the distance between both bags is the same as situation 1):

$F_{2}=G\frac{(2M)(6M)}{r^2}$ (4)

$F_{2}=G\frac{12M^2}{r^2}$ (5)

$F_{2}=12\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ (6)

Now, if we isolate $\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ from (3):

$\frac{F_{1}}{16}=\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ (7)

Substituting $\frac{GM^2}{r^2}$ found in (7) in (6):

$F_{2}=12(\frac{F_{1}}{16})$ (8)

$F_{2}=\frac{12}{16}F_{1}$ (9)

Simplifying, we finally get the expression for $F_{2}$ in terms of $F_{1}$ :

$F_{2}=\frac{3}{4}F_{1}$
