Problem
Two straight lines, each passing through the origin, are drawn on the same graph with kinetic energy on the y-axis and v2 on the x-axis. Line P is steeper than line Q. Both lines represent single objects in motion. Which statement is correct?
(a) The mass of the object represented by Q is greater than that of P.
(b) Both objects must have the same mass because both lines pass through the origin.
(c) The mass of the object represented by P is greater than that of Q.
(d) The masses cannot be compared from this information because mass is not one of the plotted variables.
