Answer:

D)378kJ

Explanation:

Applying,

E = F×d................ Equation 1

Where E = Energy expanded by the car, F = Wind resistance, d = distance

From the question,

F = 0.42v²............ Equation 2

Susbtitute equation 2 into equation 1

E = 0.42v²d.............. Equation 3

Given: v = 30 m/s, d = 1 km = 1000 m

Substitute these values into equation 3

E = 0.42(30²)(1000)

E = 378000

E = 378 kJ

Hence the right option is D)378kJ
