Two cars in motion have equal mass. Which car has more connected energy? A the car with the greatest volume B, the car with the greatest size. C, the car with the greatest acceleration. D, the car with the greatest speed.

1 answer

In the context of "connected energy," it seems like you're referring to kinetic energy, which is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. Kinetic energy (KE) is given by the formula:

\[ KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \]

where \( m \) is mass and \( v \) is velocity (speed).

Since both cars have equal mass, the kinetic energy will depend solely on their speeds. Therefore, the car with the greatest speed will have the most kinetic energy.

Thus, the correct answer to your question is:

D: the car with the greatest speed.
