A car does 17000 km/year. One litre of fuel has mass 0.84 kg. Due to inertia when starting, kinetic energy required to reach a fixed speed and rolling resistance, all increasing with increased mass, 0.4 L/100 km of exrta fuel are used for every extra 100 kg of mass. If the fuel is 86% carbon, and this is entirely oxidised to form CO2 during combustion, how much extra CO2 is emitted per year if the car is driven with an average of 35 L of fuel rather than an average of 15 L?

Select all the correctly defined terms. (Hint: do not select the ones that are incorrectly defined) Law of conservation of energy presumes the total energy content of the universe is constant. Kinetic energy is attributed to the motion of the obicet and depends on the mass of the object and its velocity. O Potential cnergy is the energy associated with position or composition. Heat involves the transfer of energy between two objects due to a temperature difference. Work is a force acting over a distance Could also be transfer of cnergy from onc form to another
