do The energy stored in an object due to its MOTION

FORMULA

EK = mass x velocity2 = mv2 Mass of object the greater the mass of an object, the greater the kinetic energy possesses by it Velocity of the object the faster an object moves, the bigger the kinetic energy possesses by it

i) Which trolley will travel further? ii) Explain your answer in c (i)
i) Trolley A ii) Explanation: Location of load on trolley A is higher than load on trolley B. As the load is higher, the trolley will gained more potential energy. When the trolley slides, the potential energy will transform to kinetic energy. As it has greater kinetic energy, the trolley A will travel further than trolley B.
