Given,
The kinetic energy of the car, E=2400 J
The speed of the car, v=20 m/s
Kinetic energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion.
It is given by,
[tex]E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2[/tex]Where m is the mass of the car.
On substituting the known values in the above equation,
[tex]\begin{gathered} 2400=\frac{1}{2}\times m\times20^2 \\ m=\frac{2\times2400}{20^2} \\ =\frac{4800}{400} \\ =12\text{ kg} \end{gathered}[/tex]Thus the mass of the car is 12 kg
