<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Kinetic energy

A car engine changes chemical potential energy into the <u>kinetic energy</u> of the moving car​.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • A car engine converts potential chemical energy stored in gasoline into thermal energy and then into kinetic mechanical energy.
  • When gasoline undergoes combustion it reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor.Gasoline is a mixture of octane and similar hydrocarbons and contains potential chemical energy.
  • The hot exhaust gases from the combustion of gasoline that are produced within the cylinder expand and exert pressure, moving the piston in the cylinder outward then inward as the gas is exhausted. Kinetic mechanical energy of the moving pistons is transferred to the drive shaft and eventually to the wheels, giving the car kinetic mechanical energy.

3. A 142 g baseball is thrown at a speed of 42.9 m/s. What is the kinetic energy of the baseball at this moment?
krok68 [10]
Kinetic energy=1/2mv^2
=1/2(142*10^-3)(42.9)^2=130.6=131J

What is the relationship between air pressure and air temperature?
LenKa [72]
The relationship between the two is that air temperature changes the air pressure. For example, as the air warms up the molecules in the air become more active and they use up more individual space even though there is the same<span> number of molecules. This causes an </span>increase<span> in the air pressure.</span>
