Question

A school bus full of students drives down the road. Because it is moving, it has 1.potential energy because it has the ability to take the students to school. 2.kinetic energy because it has the ability to take the students to school. 3.potential energy because it is taking the students to school. 4.kinetic energy because it is taking the students to school.

Answer 1

2.kinetic energy because it has the ability to take the students to school.

Step-by-step explanation:

Energy of a given system due to the virtue of the motion of the given system is known as kinetic energy of the system

now we know that

`KE = (1)/(2)mv^2`

so kinetic energy depends upon mass of the system and the velocity of the system.

So here since bus is in motion and moving towards the school so the bus along with all the children must have kinetic energy in it

So here correct answer would be

2.kinetic energy because it has the ability to take the students to school.

Answer 2

Kinetic energy because it is taking the students to school.
