Watch the video below showing the driver view of the Evo car. Pay particular attention to both the start and finish times as well as the start and finish velocities. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FQ-meMc02nE&feature=youtu.be AMPart 1: Core Energy Transformations and Work Watch the video clip that shows both interior (speedometer) and exterior views of a Mistubishi GTX55 Evolution car. The beginning of the video makes some claims about the horsepower of this car. The claims are as follows: The car setup claims a horsepower of between 1700 - 2145 hp. The mass of the car is 1650kg. 1. Based on what we see in the video how can you tell that work is being done on the car? Base your answer on the definition of work, W = 4E or W = Fd. (note: it is not enough to state that there is a "force acting over a distance". You must discuss how you know that a force is present) 2. Discuss the energy transformations that occur in order to get this car up to speed. Be sure to describe any energy forms that would be considered as "losses" in terms of the final output of the car. 3. What form of energy is the car achieving as it accelerates? E, or Ex (circle one) 4. How is power, P, defined in terms of work, W, or change in energy, 4E
