What is the kinetic energy of a 1,719.44kg car that travels at 9.22 m/s?

Given data:

* The mass of the car is 1719.44 kg.

* The velocity of the car is 9.22 m/s.

Solution:

The kinetic energy of the car in terms of mass and velocity is,

where m is the mass of the car, v is the velocity of the car, and K is the kinetic energy,

Substituting the known values,

Thus, the kinetic energy of the car is 73083.42 J or 73.08 kJ.
