Question

A large truck in a small car, moving at the same speed, traveling up and down hills, never bumpy roads. Which one has more kinetic energy?

1. The car and truck have the same kinetic energy.
2. The truck has more kinetic energy because it has a greater mass.
3. The truck has less kinetic energy because it has greater mass.
4. The car has more kinetic energy because he moves fast down hills.

Answer 1

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

The correct answer is 2. The truck has more kinetic energy because it has a greater mass. Kinetic energy depends on both mass and velocity. Although the car may move faster down hills, the larger mass of the truck gives it a greater amount of kinetic energy.
