If a large truck and a small car are moving at the same speed which has the greater kinetic energy?
The truck - greater mass.
How can two objects have the same amount of kinetic energy?
Two objects can have the same amount of kinetic energy if they have the same mass and velocity. Kinetic energy is given by the formula KE = 0.5 * mass * velocity^2, so if both objects have the same mass and velocity, they will have the same kinetic energy.
Should a large truck and a small car moving at the same speed have the same kinetic energy?
No. The large truck has more kinetic energy than the car. Mass is a variable in the equation for determining kinetic energy. Kinetic energy equals 1/2 the mass of the object time the speed (really velocity) squared.
Which has the greater kinetic energy a light car or a heavy truck?
The heavy truck likely has greater kinetic energy because kinetic energy is directly proportional to an object's mass. Since the truck has more mass than the light car, it would usually have more kinetic energy when they are both moving at the same speed.
Why do all gases with the same average kinetic energy move at the same velocity?
Gases with the same average kinetic energy move at the same velocity because kinetic energy is directly related to the speed of gas particles. When gases have the same average kinetic energy, it means they have the same amount of energy to move, resulting in them moving at the same speed.

Do a truck and a golf cart have the same kinetic energy?
When they're parked they do (which is zero). If a truck and golf cart were both moving at the same non-zero speed, the truck, being more massive, would have the greater kinetic energy.
Should a large truck and a small car moving at the same speed have the same kinetic energy?
No. The large truck has more kinetic energy than the car. Mass is a variable in the equation for determining kinetic energy. Kinetic energy equals 1/2 the mass of the object time the speed (really velocity) squared.

Why does a truck have more kinetic energy than a small car that is moving the same speed of the truck?
a matter of mass

If a large truck and a small car are moving at the same speed which has the greater kinetic energy Why?
Kinetic energy equals mass times velocity squared. Since the velocities are the same, they cancel out. Then kinetic energy is dependent on the mass of the 2 objects. Since the truck has more mass, it will have more kinetic energy.
Do all the bodies have the same amount of kinetic energy?
Of course not. A battleship in motion has more kinetic energy than a housefly in motion has.
A truck and a car are traveling down the highway at the same speed If the truck has a greater mass than the car how do their kinetic energies compare?
The kinetic energy of an object is directly proportional to its mass and speed. Since the truck has a greater mass than the car but they are traveling at the same speed, the truck will have more kinetic energy than the car.
Which asteroid, out of the two asteroids approaching the Earth at the same speed, possesses a greater amount of kinetic energy?
The asteroid with the greater mass will possess a greater amount of kinetic energy when approaching Earth at the same speed.
Why does a large truck have greater kinetic energy than a small car going the same speed?
/2mv^2 where m is mass and v is velocity. The fuel used is proportional (in a simplified view) to the kinetic energy of the car. Therefore if cars are to driven at the same speed (and ignoring the individual efficiencies of different models) the car that has a larger mass uses more fuel to get to and maintain the same speed
