Answer:

a.The 60 km/HR car

Explanation:

Kinetic Energy: This can be defined as the energy of a body due to motion. The S.I unit of kinetic energy is Joules (J).

It can be expressed mathematically as

Ek = 1/2mv²......................... Equation 1

Where Ek = kinetic energy, m = mass, v = velocity.

(i) A car travelling at 30 km/hr, with a mass of m,

Ek = 1/2(m)(30)²

Ek = 450m J.

(ii) A car travelling at 60 km/hr, with a mass of m/2

Ek = 1/2(m/2)(60)²

Ek = 900m J.

Thus , the car travelling at 60 km/hr at half mass has a greater kinetic energy to the car traveling at 30 km/hr at full mass.

The right option is a.The 60 km/HR car
