Question

Which of the following is kinetic energy?
a. A bullet fired from a gun.
b. A fast-moving railway engine.
c. Motion of a simple pendulum.

This question was previously asked in
RRB Group D 2018 Question Paper (11-Oct-2018) (Shift 3)
The correct answer is

a, b, c

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body due to its motion (KE = ½mv²).

A fired bullet, a moving railway engine and a swinging pendulum are all in motion and therefore possess kinetic energy.

Hence, a, b, c.
