If a large and small boat are moving at the same speed, which has greater kinetic energy, and why?

• The small boat, because it is faster

• The large boat, because it has more mass

• Both have the same kinetic energy

• The small boat, because it is lighter

When a ball is thrown in the air, at what point does it have the greatest potential energy and why?

• At the highest point because it is farthest from the ground.

• At the lowest point because it is closest to the ground.

• At the starting point because it has the most speed.

• At the midpoint because it is balanced.
