You are to three things one that there are two objects with equal mass to both objects art in motion 31 object has a greater kinetic energy than the other. How is this possible?

1 answer

This scenario is possible if the two objects have equal mass but different velocities.

Kinetic energy (KE) is calculated using the formula KE = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2. If the two objects have the same mass but different velocities, the object with a higher velocity will have a greater kinetic energy.

For example, let's consider two cars of equal mass. Car A is traveling at a speed of 50 mph, and Car B is traveling at a speed of 70 mph. Although both cars have the same mass, Car B will have a greater kinetic energy because its velocity is higher. Therefore, it is possible for an object with greater kinetic energy to have the same mass as another object in motion.
