A car is moving at 12 m/s and has a mass of 600 kg. What is the kinetic energy of the car? (Formula: KE = 1/2 mv^2)
KE = (1/2)mv^2
KE = (1/2)(600 kg)(12 m/s)^2
KE = (1/2)(600 kg)(144 m^2/s^2)
KE = 43,200 kg*m^2/s^2 = 43,200 Joules
The kinetic energy of the car is 43,200 Joules.
Answer:
The kinetic energy of the car is 43,200 Joules.
