Answer 1

Answer

4.6/5

263

Mass of car m = 1500 kg

Initial velocity = 54 km/h = 54 x 5/18 = 15 m/s

Final velocity = 72 km/h = 72 x 5/18 = 20 m/s

(1 km/h = 1000 m/ (3600 s) = 5/18 m/s

Initial kinetic energy = ½ mv2

= ½ x 1500 x (15)2

= 168750 J

Increased kinetic energy = 1/2 mv2

= ½ x 1500 x (20)2

= 300000 J

Work done = Change in kinetic energy

= 300000 - 168750

= 131250 J

Hence the work done by the force on the car = 131250J
