What is an object that has a small capacity and a large mass?

A small object with high density, such as a lead weight or a dense metal ball, would have a small capacity but a large mass due to the arrangement of its particles.


Can something small have more thermal energy than something big?

Yes, a small object can have more thermal energy than a larger object if it has a higher temperature. Thermal energy is directly proportional to temperature, so even though the larger object has more mass, the smaller object could have a higher temperature and therefore more thermal energy.


What happens the the kinetic energy of a falling object?

As a falling object descends, its potential energy (due to its position above the ground) is converted into kinetic energy (energy of motion). This kinetic energy increases as the object accelerates towards the ground. When the object reaches the ground, all of its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.


If the speed of an object increases its kinetic energy does what?

If the speed of an object increases, its kinetic energy also increases. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the object's speed, so a small increase in speed can result in a larger increase in kinetic energy.


What happens to the kinetic energy of the object?

The kinetic energy of an object increases as its speed increases, and decreases as its speed decreases. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the object's speed, meaning a small change in speed can have a significant impact on its kinetic energy.

Which has more kinetic energy- A small object or a large object moving at the speed of 25 mph?

The large object moving at 25 mph would have more kinetic energy compared to the small object, assuming they have the same mass. Kinetic energy is dependent on both mass and velocity, so in this case, the larger object would have more kinetic energy due to its greater mass.

How is heat different from the temperature of a body?

Heat is the transfer of energy between two bodies due to a temperature difference, while temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a body. In other words, heat is the form of energy exchanged between objects, while temperature is a measure of how hot or cold an object is.
