Kinetic energy = 1/2 M V21/2 (80) V2 = 15,000V2 = 15,000/40 = 375V = sqrt(375) = 19.365 meters/secIf the student is enrolled at the Sorbonne or McGill, the speedometer reads 69.7 km/hr.If the student goes to MIT or Univ. of Rochester, the speedometer reads 43.3 mph .

Can you replace a 225 65 R16 tire with a 215 60 R16 tire?
Yes, you can There will be about a 5% decrease in the tire diameter. 225 65 tires are 225mm wide and 146.25mm in height (65% of the width), while 215 60 tires are 129mm tall, which will affect the odometer and speedometer. When your speedometer reads 60 mph, you'll actually be traveling closer to 57 mph. Replacing the 225 65 tires with 215 70 tires would keep the diameter almost the same (150.5mm).

What does speed sensor do in 93 jeep Cherokee?
It reads of the 2 transmission output shaft or the 4wd transfer case output shaft. Basically it reads how fast the output shaft is moving and sends that reading to the computer and the computer sends it to the speedometer. Without it the speedometer doesn't work.
