Explain the mass of co2 emitted into the atmosphere

Reference no: EM13487291

A large sport utility vehicle has a mass of 2500kg . Calculate the mass of CO2 emitted into the atmosphere upon accelerating the SUV from 0 to 67.0mph . Assume that the required energy comes from the combustion of octane with 30% efficiency. (Hint: Use KE = 1/2\,mv^2 to calculate the kinetic energy required for the acceleration.)
