AI Generated Solution

To find the ratio of the kinetic energies of two cars moving at different speeds, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the formula for kinetic energy The kinetic energy (KE) of an object is given by the formula: \[ KE = \frac{1}{2} m v^2 \] where \( m \) is the mass of the object and \( v \) is its velocity. ...
