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) Responses One object has a greater speed than the other object. One object has a greater speed than the other object. One object has a greater density then the other object. One object has a greater density then the other object. One object has a greater volume than the other object. One object has a greater volume than the other object. One object is blue and one object is red.
One object has a greater speed than the other object is the correct response. The kinetic energy of an object is directly proportional to its mass and the square of its velocity. Therefore, if two objects have equal masses but different velocities (speeds), the one with the greater velocity will have a greater kinetic energy. Density, volume, and color are not factors that affect kinetic energy.
