What is the kinetic energy of a car that is traveling at 14.1 m/s if it has a mass of 1487 kg? Submit your answer in exponential form.

Respuesta :

ANSWER:

1.48 x 10^5 K

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given:

Velocity (v) = 14.1 m/s

Mass (m) = 1487 kg

The kinetic energy is calculated using the following formula:

[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]

We substitute and determine the value of the energy

[tex]\begin{gathered} E=\frac{1}{2}\cdot1487\cdot\left(14.1\right)^2 \\ \\ E=147815.235=1.48\cdot10^5\text{ J} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The kinetic energy is equal to 1.48 x 10^5 joules.
