Answer:
9.4 m/s
Explanation:
According to the work-energy theorem, the work done by external forces on a system is equal to the change in kinetic energy of the system.
Therefore we can write:
where in this case:
W = -36,733 J is the work done by the parachute (negative because it is opposite to the motion)
is the initial kinetic energy of the car
is the final kinetic energy
Solving,
The final kinetic energy of the car can be written as
where
m = 661 kg is its mass
v is its final speed
Solving for v,
