A body A is placed on a railway platform and an identical body B in a moving train. Which of the following energies of B are greater than those of A, as seen from the ground?
(a) Kinetic
(b) Total
(c) Mechanical
(d) Internal

उत्तर
(a) Kinetic
(b) Total
(c) Mechanical
As body A is at rest on the ground, it possesses only potential energy, whereas body B, being placed inside a moving train, possesses kinetic energy due to its motion along with the train. Therefore, body B will have greater kinetic, mechanical (energy possessed by the body by virtue of its position and motion = kinetic energy+potential energy) energy and, hence, total (sum of all the energies) energy. No information is given about the temperature of the body so we can not say wheather body B' s internal energy will be or will not be greater than that of body A.
