Question

Two examples of kinetic energy are:

Answer 1

Answer:

1) An airplane has a large amount of kinetic energy in flight due to its large mass and fast velocity.

2) A baseball thrown by a pitcher, although having a small mass, can have a large amount of kinetic energy due to its fast velocity.

Answer 2

Answer:

• A river flowing at a certain speed possesses kinetic energy because the water has a certain mass and it also has velocity.
• A car traveling down the road has less kinetic energy than a semi-truck traveling at the same speed because the car's mass is much less than the truck's.
