Answer:
The correct option is (b).
Explanation:
We need to find the work done to increase the speed of a 1 kg toy car by 5 m/s.
We know that, the work done is equal to the kinetic energy of an object i.e.
[tex]W=\Delta K\\\\W=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2\\\\W=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 1\times 5^2\\W=12.5\ J[/tex]
So, 12.5 J of work is done to increase the speed of a 1.0 kg toy car by 5.0 m/s.
