Let both the balls have the same mass equals to m.

Let v_1 and v_2 be the speed of the ball1 and the ball2 respectively, such that

v_1>v_2\;\cdots(i)

Assuming that both the balls are at the same level with respect to the ground, so let h be the height from the ground.

The total energy of ball1= Kinetic energy of ball1 + Potential energy of ball1. The Kinetic energy of any object moving with speed, v, is \frac 12 m v^2

and the potential energy is due to the change in height is mgh [where g is the acceleration due to gravity]

So, the total energy of ball1,

=\frac 12 m v_1^2 + mgh\;\cdots(ii)

and the total energy of ball1,

=\frac 12 m v_2^2 + mgh\;\cdots(iii).

Here, the potential energy for both the balls are the same, but the kinetic energy of the ball1 is higher the ball2 as the ball1 have the higher speed, refer equation (i)

So, \frac 12 m v_1^2 >\frac 12 m v_2^2

Now, from equations (ii) and (iii)

The total energy of ball1 hi higher than the total energy of ball2.

Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Velocity is defined as the rate of change of displacement.

velocity is a vector quantity, that means it requires both magnitude and direction to completely explain the velocity.

For example, the velocity is 5 ms due east, it means an object is moving with speed 5 ms in the direction of east. We can say that the object covers the displacement of 5 m in one second due east.
