Answer:

18150 J

Step-by-step explanation:

The kinetic energy of the car can be found by using the formula


k = (1)/(2) m {v}^(2) \\

m is the Mass

v is the velocity

From the question we have


k = (1)/(2) * 1200 * {5.5}^(2) \\ = 600 * 30.25

We have the final answer as

18150 J

Hope this helps you
