Answer:
K =400000 J
Explanation:
Kinetic Energy
Is the energy an object has due to its state of motion. It's proportional to the square of the speed.
The equation for the kinetic energy is:
[tex]\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]
Where:
m = mass of the object
v = speed at which the object moves
The kinetic energy is expressed in Joules (J)
The car has a mass of m=2000 Kg and travels at v=20 m/s. Calculating the kinetic energy:
[tex]\displaystyle K=\frac{1}{2}2000*20^2[/tex]
Calculating:
K =400000 J
