Determine the kinetic energy of an 833.0 kg roller coaster car moving at a speed of 20.0 m/s

166,600J

Explanation:

Kinetic energy (K.E), which is the energy due to motion of a body, can be calculated by using the formula;

K.E = 1/2 × m × v²

Where;

K.E = kinetic energy (joules)

m = mass of body (kg)

v = speed or velocity (m/s)

According to this question, the mass of the roller coaster is 833.0 kg while its velocity/speed is 20.0m/s.

K.E = 1/2 × 833 × 20²

K.E = 1/2 × 833 × 400

K.E = 1/2 × 333200

K.E = 166,600

Therefore, the kinetic energy of the roller coaster car is 166,600J.

your answer is a. the enthalpy of formation for a pure element in its standard state is always positive.
