You can not make a decisive answer without knowing the MASS of the Object and its relative POSITION and Velocity in its Reference Frame.

They could be Equal, or either one greater than the other.

Is kinetic energy the same as static energy?

No, Potential Energy is the energy of an object that has the potential to move while kinetic energy is the energy of an object at motion. Potential energy is defined by Mass * Gravity(9.81ms-2) * height(In meters) Kinetic energy is defined by (1/2)*Mass*Velocity2


What accounts for the aircraft carrier having a greater kinetic energy than the falling nickel?

The aircraft carrier is much heavier than the falling nickel, which means it has more mass. Since kinetic energy is directly proportional to an object's mass, the aircraft carrier will have a greater kinetic energy compared to the nickel despite both having the same velocity just before impact.


What is kinetic energy in chemistry?

In chemistry, kinetic energy refers to the energy associated with the movement of particles. It is related to temperature, with higher temperatures leading to greater kinetic energy and faster particle movement. This energy is important in chemical reactions as it affects the rate at which reactions occur.


Does a small horse has the same amount of kinetic energy as a larger horse moving at the same speed?

The more massive horse that is moving at the same speed will have greater kinetic energy. How do you define large and small? A small fat horse may have more mass than a large skinny horse.


How do you calculate the gain of Kinetic Energy?

The gain in kinetic energy can be calculated using the equation: ΔKE = KE_final - KE_initial, where KE is the kinetic energy. Simply subtract the initial kinetic energy from the final kinetic energy to determine the gain.

What is greater static friction or kinetic energy?

Static friction is typically greater than kinetic friction because it prevents an object from moving initially, requiring more force to overcome. Kinetic energy, on the other hand, is the energy possessed by a moving object and is dependent on its mass and velocity.


Which coefficient of friction is greater static or kinetic?

The coefficient of static friction is greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction. Static friction occurs when an object is at rest and must be overcome to start moving, leading to a higher coefficient compared to kinetic friction, which occurs when an object is already in motion.


Which type of energy becomes greater as the kinetic energy becomes greater?

The kinetic type does.


Static friction is usually greater than?

kinetic friction


Can the coefficient of static friction be equal to the coefficient of kinetic friction?

No, the coefficient of static friction is typically greater than the coefficient of kinetic friction.


Is it true that kinetic friction is always greater than the maximum value of static friction?

Yes, it is generally true that kinetic friction is always greater than the maximum value of static friction.


If two roller coasters have the same mass the one with the greater what will have a greater Kinetic energy?

The one with the greater velocity will have the greater kinetic energy.


The higher the temperature of something the greater its?

Thermal Energy.


The two types of friction you learned about in this lesson are?

The two types of friction are static friction, which acts between stationary objects, and kinetic friction, which acts between moving objects. Static friction is generally greater than kinetic friction.


What is energy of motion or movement?

Energy of motion, or kinetic energy, is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends on its mass and velocity - the greater the mass and speed, the greater the kinetic energy. This energy can be transferred between objects during collisions or transformations.


Why is potential energy greater than kinetic energy?

Potential energy is greater than kinetic energy when an object is at rest or at a high point. When potential energy is at its maximum, kinetic energy is at its minimum because the object is not in motion. As the object falls, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.


What happens to the kinetic energy when an object moves faster?

it gets greater because the greater the mass the greater kinetic energy
