If there are two objects with equal masses and both are in motion, it is not possible for one object to have a greater kinetic energy than the other. Kinetic energy depends solely on an object's mass and velocity.
The kinetic energy (KE) of an object can be calculated using the formula: KE = 0.5 * mass * velocity^2.
Since both objects have equal masses, the only way one object could have a greater kinetic energy is if it has a higher velocity than the other. In this scenario, the object with the higher velocity would indeed have a greater kinetic energy. However, if both objects have the same mass, it is impossible for one object to possess a higher velocity without violating the initial condition that both objects are in motion and have equal masses.
