[tex]E_{k}[/tex] = 652500J
The easiest way to solve this problem is using the kinetic energy equation:
[tex]E_{k}[/tex] = mv²/2
A 1450kg sports car traveling down the road at a speed of 30m/s is kinectic energy will be:
[tex]E_{k}[/tex] = [(1450kg)(30m/s)²]/2 = 1305000kg-m²/s²/2
[tex]E_{k}[/tex] = 652500J
