    Answer: The truck has a greater kinetic energy

    Explanation:

    The initial velocities of both the truck and car are the same. Likewise, the final velocity is the same. The change in kinetic energy is dependent only on mass. The truck has a greater mass, therefore, the change in its kinetic energy is greater.
