Question

Which is an example of an object increasing its kinetic energy

Question 3 options:

an airplane after landing on a level runway.


a rocket before launch.


a train stopped at the station.


a mouse running faster after spotting a cat.

Answer 1

The answer to this question is the A choice. A rocket before launch.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the definition of kinetic energy, it says: In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.
