<span>Let's convert the speed to m/s:
speed = (55 mph) (1609.3 m / mile) (1 hour / 3600 seconds)
speed = 24.59 m/s
Let's convert the mass to kilograms:
mass = (2135 lb) (0.45359 kg / lb)
mass = 968.4 kg
We can find the kinetic energy KE:
KE = (1/2) m v^2
KE = (1/2) (968.4 kg) (24.59 m/s)^2
KE = 292780 joules
The kinetic energy of the automobile is 292780 joules.</span>
To find the temperature it is necessary to use the expression and concepts related to the ideal gas law.
Mathematically it can be defined as

Where
P = Pressure
V = Volume
n = Number of moles
R = Gas constant
T = Temperature
When the number of moles and volume is constant then the expression can be written as

Or in practical terms for this exercise depending on the final temperature:

Our values are given as

Replacing

Therefore the final temperature of the gas is 800K
Explanation:
Watts are defined as 1 Watt = 1 Joule per second (1W = 1 J/s)
which means that 1 kW = 1000 J/s. A Watt is the amount of energy (in Joules) that an electrical device (such as a light) is burning per second that it's running.
