Which has the greater kinetic energy–a 1-ton car moving at 30 m/s or a half-ton car moving at 60 m/s?
A) Both have the same kinetic energy
B) The half-ton car
C) The 1-ton car
D) It cannot be determined because the mass of the cars can't be found

B). half-ton car

Explanation:

We can find Kinectic using below expresion.

m= mass of the object

v= velocity

mass (1) 1 ton= 1000kg

Mass(2)0.5= 500kg

K.E= 1/2 mv^2

For 1 ton car

Substitute the values

Kinectic energy= 1/2( 1000) 30^2

= 450,000J

For 0.5 ton car

Kinectic energy= 1/2(500)60^2

= 900,000J

Hence, half-ton car has greater Kinectic energy
