Maybe and maybe not. It depends on the speed of the two objects. A small object moving very fast might have more kinetic energy than a large object moving slowly.

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.


Does kinetic energy increase with size?

Velocity of molecular movement is lower in larger molecules because it takes more energy to get the larger molecule moving. On the other hand, smaller molecules move more rapidly causing its velocity to be higher.


Does a small horse has the same amount of kinetic energy as a larger horse moving at the same speed?

The more massive horse that is moving at the same speed will have greater kinetic energy. How do you define large and small? A small fat horse may have more mass than a large skinny horse.


What does it mean if an object has no kinetic energy?

If an object has no kinetic energy, it means that it is not in motion. Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion, so if there is no motion, there is no kinetic energy present.


The factor that has the greatest effect on kinetic energy is?

The velocity of the object. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to an object's mass and the square of its velocity. Therefore, changes in velocity have a larger impact on kinetic energy compared to changes in mass.


What two factors affect kinetic enrgy?

We generally think of kinetic energy as the energy of motion. And the two things that matter most as regards the energy of a moving object are its mass and its velocity.


Is a smaller hot thing contain less energy than a larger cooler thing?

Yes, a smaller hot object can contain less total energy than a larger cooler object. The total energy of an object is related to its mass and temperature. While the smaller hot object has a higher temperature, its overall energy may still be less than that of a larger object at a lower temperature due to the larger object's greater mass.


What is a large object at the same temperature as a smaller one has more or less thermal energy?

Thermal energy depends on mass, temperature and specific heat capacity of the material. Larger means, is that in mass? If so then thermal energy would be more in larger compared to that smaller at the same temperature provided both are made up of the same material.


What makes an object have more kinetic energy?

An object has more kinetic energy when the temperature gets hotter. The particle's speed increase and begin to flow more rapidly. An object has more kinetic energy when the temperature gets hotter. The particle's speed increase and begin to flow more rapidly.


When does an object have no kinetic energy?

An object has no kinetic energy when it is at rest or not in motion. Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion, so when there is no motion, there is no kinetic energy present.


What does it mean if an object has kinetic energy?

an object has no kinetic energy if it is not moving


What has more kinetic energy a bike or a car?

A car has more kinetic energy than a bike because it has a greater mass and generally moves at higher speeds. Kinetic energy is dependent on both an object's mass and its velocity, so the larger, faster-moving car will have more kinetic energy compared to a smaller, slower-moving bike.
