As you learned, kinetic energy is 1/2mv^2. Call the velocity of object 1 v. Then, object 2 travels at 2v. The kinetic energy is object 1 is then 1/2mv^2 and that of object 2 is 1/2m(2v)^2=4(1/2mv^2). Therefore, the kinetic energy os the faster object is  times that of the slower one.

The greater the speed of two identical masses, the greater the kinetic energy.  So, the mass that is traveling twice as fast as the other has much more kinetic energy.  The formula for kinetic energy is KE=m*v^2 (kinetic energy equals mass times velocity squared), and velocity is the same as speed in this case because it is squared.  So, the mass traveling twice as fast has 4 times the kinetic energy, because 2 squared=2*2=4.

Answer: The mass traveling twice as fast has four times the kinetic energy.

What are the phases of Mitosis and what happens in each phase?
Norma-Jean [14]
Interphase: Chromosomes duplicate, and the copies remain attached to each other.

Prophase: In the nucleus, chromosomes condense and become visible. Spindle fibers begin to form.

Prometaphase: The nulcear membrane breaks apart, and the spindle starts to interact with the chromosomes.

Metaphase: The copied chromosomes align in the middle of the spindle.

Anaphase: Chromosomes separate into two genetically identical groups and move to opposite ends of the spindle.

Telophase: Nuclear membranes form around each of the two sets of chromosomes, they begin to spread out, and the spindle begins to break down.

Cytokinesis: The two cells split into two daughter cells, each with the same number of chromosomes as the parent cell.

Which term(s) in the van deemter equation does(do) not affect the plate height?
Andru [333]
In the van deemter equation, plate height (H) = A + B/u+ Cu.
So, A, B, U, and C affects the plate height. A is the eddy diffusion term, B is the longitudinal or ordinary diffusion term, C is the nonequilibrium or resistance to mass transfer coefficient, and U is the linear velocity.
