Answer:
Acceleration is percieved, not constant velocity.
Explanation:
You are most aware when the vehicle is accelerating. At constant velocity you would not be aware of the motion. Only if the system is accelerated the dynamics must be solved considering a pseudo-force (of inertial origin) acting.
It's because of this that:
(A) False. The acceleration can be detected from the inside of a closed car.
(B) False. You would be aware of the motion, but not because humans can sense speed but acceleration.
(C) False. Constant velocity cannot be felt in a closed car.
(D) False. Again, you can't feel constant speed.
Answer:
In physics, the kinetic energy (KE) of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion
In classical mechanics, the gravitational potential at a location is equal to the work (energy transferred) per unit mass that would be needed to move an object to that location from a fixed reference location. It is analogous to the electric potential with mass playing the role of charge. The reference location, where the potential is zero, is by convention infinitely far away from any mass, resulting in a negative potential at any finite distance.
In mathematics, the gravitational potential is also known as the Newtonian potential and is fundamental in the study of potential theory. It may also be used for solving the electrostatic and magnetostatic fields generated by uniformly charged or polarized ellipsoidal bodies
