Question

A car is travelling with a velocity of 10 m/s and has a mass of 550 kg. The car has energy.

Answer 1

Answer: The car has a kinetic energy (because it's in motion) of:  $27500J$

Explanation:

$Formula: E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2$

$E=\frac{1}{2}(550kg)(10m/s)^2$

$E=\frac{1}{2}(550kg)(100m^2/s^2)$

$E=\frac{1}{2}(55000J)\\E=27500J$
