Can two people be moving in different speed and have same kinetec energy?

Certainly, because kinetic energy is determined by both mass and speed.
If I'm traveling at 1/2 the speed that you are, but I have 4 times as much mass
as you have, then our kinetic energies are equal.
And for an example in the other direction . . . If my mass is only 1% of yours,
but I'm traveling at 10 times your speed, then our kinetic energies are equal.
That's how a bullet or a Baseball can knock a grown person off his feet.
Kinetic Energy = 1/2 (mass) x (speed)2

Can two people be moving at different speeds but have the same kenetic energy?
yes. KE=1/2mv2, mass is also a factor that can change KE
Why is energy running out?
Because so many people are moving to Englsnd and leaving lights or anything to do with energy on.
Why do some people have different energy needs?
NO
Why does energy transfer from one molecule to the other when the two are at different temperatures?
The temperature of a molecule/particle is a mesure of its energy, the more energy it has, the faster it will move and the higher its temperature will be; if you have two molecules at different temperatures they will therefore be moving at different speeds, and so if and when they collide, the faster/hotter one transfers energy to the slower/colder one. (This same basic principal applies in many situations, in a collision between two cars/people for example, they will usually go in the same direction as the person with the most momentum.)
What is called electricity at rest?
Electricity that is not moving is called static electricity. you know, the small electric shock that you can give people after rubbing your feet and lifting them off the carpet in class. This electricity can be harmful if not treated proporly, trust me, my toung is still hurting!

Can two people be moving at the different speeds and have the same kinetic energy?
Sure. Kinetic energy depends on both mass and speed. So two objects could have different speeds, but if their masses are also different by just the right amount, their KE's could be equal.

NO
How do people make energy from water?
To get energy from water, a water wheel is placed underneath moving water, this turns a turbine, which creates power.
How do people gain and or lose weight?
People gain weight if the food they eat contains more energy than what they use by moving around and staying alive. People lose weight of the food they eat contain less energy than what they use up by moving around and staying alive.
Do you male and female abuse victims have different needs?
Yes, all people have different needs as we are moving along different paths.

over population, bad ruler, people moving to different places
How many type of energy?
In one sense, energy is energy, it can neither be created nor destroyed. Energy exists as Heat, Light, Potential (stored), Kinetic (movement) or Chemical. Kinetic energy is the energy of a mocing object. Heat is really another form of Kinetic energy as it is really the amount of movement of atoms ina given substance. LIght is electromagnetic radiation. Potential energy is the energy stored in, say, an object at the top of a mountain, Chemical energy is energy that will be released during a chemical reaction (until then it is stored in the chemicals),Another type of energy is mechanical energy. An example is your hand moving across the paper.
