An airplane cames 320 passengers from Phoenix to Los Angeles flying at an average speed of 490 miles per hour. On the return night, the plane cames 164 passengers and travels at the same average speed What happens to the plane's kinetic energy? (1 point)

Question

An airplane cames 320 passengers from Phoenix to Los Angeles flying at an average speed of 490 miles per hour. On the return night, the plane cames 164 passengers and travels at the same average speed What happens to the plane's kinetic energy? (1 point)

The plane's kinetic energy in the same on both fights

O The plane's kinetic energy is changed to potential energy when it lands

On the retum fight the plane has more kinetic energy

On the return fight the plane has less kinetic energy

Answer 1

The plane's kinetic energy is the same on both flights. The kinetic energy of an object depends on its mass and velocity, and since the mass and velocity of the airplane remains constant on both flights, its kinetic energy also remains the same.
