I suggest one question per post.

1. KE=.5*m*v^2
and momentum =m*v
you know KE and m so
(50/1000)*
sqrt(250*2*1000/50)=m*v

2. similar
convert km/hr to m/s
20*60*60/1000=v
6000=.5*m*v
solve for m since you know v

3) Similar, convert the units and muliply mass by velocity.

4. Again, convert the units

5. Car A momentum
1000*30*3.6
KE=.5*1000*(30*3.6)^2

and so on

6. The average force can be calculated by first finding the average velocity which is initial divided by two. Then the "distance" is average velocity multiplied by time. Then compute the initial kinetic energy of the car KE, and use the following equation:
KE=distance*average force

7. You know the thrust force and the final speed. Compute the final kinetic energy based on the speed alone, this is how much energy the engines must do work that is equivalent to.

8. More of the same.
