Anakin Skywalker's pod racer has a mass of 450 kg. If the top speed of this racer is 947
km/h, what is the maximum kinetic energy it can have

15,569,653.3 Joules(J)

Explanation:

The equation used to find Kinetic Energy (KE) is

KE = m

You have been given

m = 450kg

v = 947km/h

KE = ???

Firstly, we need to convert the km/h into m/s as this is the unit used in the KE equation

This can be done by dividing by 3.6

947km/h = 263.056m/s

Substitute you values into the equation

KE = m

KE = * 450 *

KE = 15,569,653.3 Joules(J)

Round your answer as appropriate

igneous rocks also form where plates converge. the subducting plate melts as it sinks into the crust of the earth, and the melt rises into the overriding plate forming volcanoes. metamorphic rocks are formed mainly in the lithosphere, wherever there is high pressure and high temperature. -woods
