Question

which of these objects have kinetic energy? choose 3 answers: a the earth traveling around the sun b a feather being blown around by the wind c a car being refueled at a gas station d a ball that has been thrown upward and is slowing down e a wrecking ball hanging at rest from a cable f a box of batteries on a shelf

Explanation:

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. Objects that are moving have kinetic energy. The Earth traveling around the Sun is in motion, a feather being blown by the wind is in motion, and a ball thrown upward (even while slowing down) is in motion. A car being refueled is stationary, a wrecking - ball at rest has no motion, and a box of batteries on a shelf is stationary.

Answer:

A. the Earth traveling around the Sun
B. a feather being blown around by the wind
D. a ball that has been thrown upward and is slowing down
