If two people hit identical tennis balls at the same time, the ball that has the most kinetic energy is the ball that moves at the fastest speed.
<u>Explanation:</u>
The energy possessed by an object by virtue of its motion is called its kinetic energy indicating that only moving objects have kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of an object depends on its speed and mass.
It is given by the expression
where m denotes the mass of the object and v denotes its velocity.
since kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the velocity, the kinetic energy of an object increases with its velocity.
Hence an object that moves at the fastest speed will have the most kinetic energy.
Answer:
To have the same kinetic energy the speed of the marble must be 9 times the speed of rock.
Explanation:
The general formula of kinetic energy is given as follows:
where,
K.E = Kinetic Energy
m = mass of the object
v = speed of the object
So, for the marble and rock to have same kinetic energy, we can write:
<u>Hence, to have the same kinetic energy the speed of the marble must be 9 times the speed of rock.</u>
