Kinetic Energy of Vehicle at Design Speed Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Kinetic Energy of Vehicle at Design Speed = (Total Weight of Vehicle*Velocity^2)/(2*[g])
K.E = (W*v_vehicle^2)/(2*[g])
This formula uses 1 Constants, 3 Variables

Constants Used

[g] - Gravitational acceleration on Earth Value Taken As 9.80665

Variables Used

Kinetic Energy of Vehicle at Design Speed - (Measured in Joule) - Kinetic Energy of Vehicle at Design Speed is the energy exerted on the vehicle due to its motion.
Total Weight of Vehicle - (Measured in Kilogram) - Total Weight of Vehicle is the weight of a vehicle when it is totally loaded consisting weight of passengers, luggage, and other spare parts.
Velocity - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Velocity is the rate of change of distance of the vehicle with respect to time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Total Weight of Vehicle: 230 Kilogram --> 230 Kilogram No Conversion Required
Velocity: 28.23 Meter per Second --> 28.23 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K.E = (W*v_vehicle^2)/(2*[g]) --> (230*28.23^2)/(2*[g])

Evaluating ... ...

K.E = 9345.42208603346

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

9345.42208603346 Joule --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

9345.42208603346 ≈ 9345.422 Joule <-- Kinetic Energy of Vehicle at Design Speed
