Determine the kinetic energy of a 625-kg roller coaster car that is moving with a speed of 10 m/s.
abruzzese [7]

Hi there!

Kinetic energy can be calculated using the following:

\large\boxed{KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2}}

Where:

KE = Kinetic energy (J)

m = mass (kg)

v = velocity (m/s)

Plug in the given values:

KE = \frac{1}{2}(625)(10^2) = \boxed{31250J}
