• Mass = 1,008 kg.
,• Speed = 59 m/s.
The kinetic energy of the car depends directly on its mass and its squared speed.
[tex]K=\frac{1}{2}\cdot m\cdot v^2[/tex]Where m = 1,008 kg and v = 59 m/s.
[tex]\begin{gathered} K=\frac{1}{2}\cdot1,008\operatorname{kg}\cdot(59\cdot\frac{m}{s})^2 \\ K=504\operatorname{kg}\cdot3,481\cdot\frac{m^2}{s^2} \\ K=1,754,424J \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, the kinetic energy of the car is 1,754,424 Joules.
