MCQ
Which of the following statements is incorrect?
  • ✓
    Kinetic energy may be zero, positive or negative.
  • B
    Power, energy and work are all scalars.
  • C
    Potential energy may be zero, positive or negative.
  • D
    Ballistic pendulum is a device for measuring the speed of bullets.
✓

Answer

Correct option: A.
Kinetic energy may be zero, positive or negative.
The kinetic energy of a body of mass $mm$ which is moving with velocity $v$ is $\text{K}=\frac{1}{2}\text{min}^2$
Mass is always positive and if the velocity is either positive or negative, the kinetic energy is always positive due to the square of velocity.
