A car traveling on a level road initially has 440 kJ of mechanical energy. After the brakes are applied for a few seconds, the car has only 110 kJ of mechanical energy. What best accounts for the missing mechanical energy

Explanation:

Given that

There's a change in friction from 440 kJ to 110 kJ

This change is as a result of conversion of energy. The energy of the car system converted the mechanical energy in it, into a corresponding heat energy. During the course of this conversion, is where a whopping 330 kJ of energy went missing.

The 330 kJ of energy was lost as a result of the conversion of mechanical energy into heat energy by the use of friction.

the answer for apex is the lowest
