You are told 3 things...1. That there are two objects with equal masses. 2. Both objects are in motion. 3. One object has a greater kinetic energy than the other. How is this possible? (1 point)

A large truck and a small car are moving at the same speed, traveling up and down hills, and over bumpy roads. Which one has more kinetic energy?(1 point)

Responses

The car has more kinetic energy because it moves fast down hills.
The car has more kinetic energy because it moves fast down hills.

The truck has more kinetic energy because it has a greater mass.
The truck has more kinetic energy because it has a greater mass.

The truck has less kinetic energy because it has greater mass.
The truck has less kinetic energy because it has greater mass.

The car and truck have the same kinetic energy.

The truck has more kinetic energy because it has a greater mass.

Question

A skydiver jumps out of a plane and begins to accelerate. His speed increases to 20 m/s, then 30 m/s. His acceleration slows until he reaches a constant speed of 50 m/s. Which statement correctly describes his kinetic energy during this time?(1 point)
Responses

His kinetic energy was positive at first, but it decreased to zero when he stopped accelerating.
His kinetic energy was positive at first, but it decreased to zero when he stopped accelerating.

His kinetic energy increased quickly at first, then it increased at a constant rate.
His kinetic energy increased quickly at first, then it increased at a constant rate.

His kinetic energy increased while his speed increases, then it became constant.
His kinetic energy increased while his speed increases, then it became constant.

His kinetic energy would remain the same for the whole fall as long as he lost no mass.

thoe are the awnsers

Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. You are correct. The correct statement is: His kinetic energy increased while his speed increased, then it became constant.
