The kinetic energy will be 687.186 BTU

Explanation:

We have given mass of car = 2500 lbm

We know that 1 lbm = 0.4535 kg

So 2500 lbm = 2500\times 0.4535=1133.75kg

Speed = 80 mph

We know that 1 mile = 1609.34 meter

1 hour = 3600 sec

So 80mph=\frac{80\times 1609.34}{3600}=35.763m/sec

We know that kinetic energy E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2=\frac{1}{2}\times 1133.75\times 35.76^2=725.033KJ

We know that 1 KJ = 0.9478 BTU

So 725.033 KJ = 725.033×0.9478 = 687.186 BTU
