Question
Which requires more energy and by how much?
Taking a 1000kg car from 0 mph (0m/s) to 30 mph (13.4m/s) or
speeding up the same car from 60 mph (26.8m/s) to 70 mph (31.3m/s).
Select one:
O A. O mph to 30 mph by 90 kJ
O B. 60 mph to 70 mph by 131 kJ
O C. 0 mph to 30 mph by 41 kJ
O D. 60 mph to 70 mph by 41 kJ
O E. They take the same energy therefore the difference is
OJ
