Which has more kinetic energy, a large dog sitting on a sidewalk or a small cat running down the street?

• the large dog

• the small cat

• Both have the same kinetic energy

• need more information to answer

Answer explanation

The small cat has more kinetic energy because it is running, while the large dog is sitting and not in motion.

Charlotte, Mason, and Arjun are conducting an experiment in their physics class. They drop a lump of clay from a height. What energy transformations occur in this scenario?

• GPE → KE → thermal energy

• KE → chemical PE → thermal energy

• KE → GPE → thermal energy

• GPE → KE → elastic PE

Answer explanation

When a lump of clay is dropped, the energy transformations that occur are gravitational potential energy (GPE) being converted to kinetic energy (KE), and then to thermal energy.
