M v = m V
since the motorcycle has less mass, its velocity is greater
K.E. is proportional to the square of the velocity , so the motorcycle will have greater K.E.
A motorcycle and a bus are moving with the same momentum.Which of them have greater kinetic energy ?
4 answers
thanks for your qestion
when a bus and a motorcycle are moving at the same speed, the motorcycle has more kinetic energy
K.E = P2/2M
Momentum is constant
Then, K.E=1/2M
ie, kinetic energy inversly proportional to mass.
Therefore MOTOR CYCLE have great KINETIC ENERGY
