Answer: 2812500 joules
Explanation:
Mass of car = 1500kg
Velocity of car = 75mph
Kinetic energy = ?
Recall that kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object, and it depends on its mass M and velocity, V
Thus, Kinetic energy = 1/2 x mv^2
= 1/2 x 1000kg x (75mph)^2
= 0.5 x 1000kg x (75mph)^2
= 500 x 5625
= 2812500 joules
Thus, the car travels with a kinetic energy of 2812500 joules
Electrons are important to the electric current because they are able to move from one atom to another. When an atom loses an electron, it becomes positively charged and when an atom gains an electron, it becomes negatively charged.
E = mc²
E = 0.235 kg · (3×10⁸ m/s)² = 0.235 · 9×10¹⁶ kg·m/s²
E = 2.115×10¹⁶ J
The answer is d) 2.12×10¹⁶ J
