Air resistance and friction as the car accelerates


Lamborghini states that its 2004 Murciélago® has a mass of 1650 kg. On a particular test run, its 580 hp (433 kW) engine accelerates the car from 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in 3.60 seconds. Assume the engine is working at its maximum power. How much energy is consumed by dissipative forces like air resistance and friction as the car accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h?
