Time is not a factor, speed is velocity and velocity equates to kinetic energy.
E=Mass * Velocity squared.

∙ 13y agoKinetic energy increases with speed because kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of an object's speed. Time does not have a direct effect on kinetic energy, as kinetic energy depends on an object's mass and speed but not its duration of movement.

∙ 7y agoNo. Kinetic energy depends on SPEED and on MASS.

Work is directly related to both potential and kinetic energy. When work is done on an object, it can increase its potential energy by changing its position or state. At the same time, work can also increase an object's kinetic energy by changing its speed or movement. This relationship between work, potential energy, and kinetic energy is fundamental in understanding the behavior of objects in various physical scenarios.
|v| = sqrt( 2 * KE / m ), with |v| being speed.
Gaining kinetic energy 'E' amounts to saying that the momentum of an object increases. E = p^2 / 2m where p is momentum and m is mass. (Momentum is just mass times speed.) So, to increase the speed the kinetic energy has to change. In other words, if you set the kinetic energy to any value you like and keep it constant, there won't be a speed up. What is the change in kinetic energy? You can just as well ask what is the change in momentum. Physicists have chosen the latter question and call the change in momentum 'the force'. F = dp / dt where F is force and d/dt means derivation with respect to time. It is the pushing force acting on objects that makes them gain speed. Kinetic energy is usually something that you calculate at the end when you have found out what the forces in your problem are and what the momentum is as a function of time.
Yes, both kinetic energy and potential energy can increase when a gas-filled balloon is rising in air. As the balloon rises, it gains potential energy due to its increased height above the ground. At the same time, the balloon also gains kinetic energy as it accelerates upward, increasing its speed.
To find the mean kinetic energy with only mass and horizontal distance traveled, you would also need to know the initial and final velocities of the object. Once you have these values, you can calculate the mean kinetic energy using the formula: KE = 0.5 * m * ((v_final)^2 - (v_initial)^2), where m is the mass and v is the velocity.
The speed of a wave is a property of the medium, changing the speed would need a change in the medium itself. If the medium doesn't change as a wave moves, the wave speed is steady. Formula: Speed = distance divided by time

That depends on what is happening to the speed at the same time, since kinetic energy depends on both mass and speed. If the speed doesn't change, then less mass implies less kinetic energy. You might suspect that it works this way. If it worked the other way around, then you'd rather be hit by a truck than be hit by a speeding speck of dust.

No, the kinetic energy of an object does not double when its speed doubles. Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity, so if the speed doubles, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four.
If a vehicle's speed increases, its stopping distance will also increase. This is due to the kinetic energy of the vehicle increasing with speed, requiring more distance and time to bring the vehicle to a halt.

Increasing the velocity of a vehicle will increase its speed, leading to a greater kinetic energy and momentum. This can result in the vehicle covering a greater distance in a shorter amount of time, but it also requires more force for braking and can increase the risk of accidents if not controlled properly.
If you double the velocity of an object, its kinetic energy would increase by a factor of four because kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of velocity. The object would also cover twice the distance in the same amount of time due to the increased speed.
To find the mean kinetic energy with only mass and horizontal distance traveled, you would also need to know the initial and final velocities of the object. Once you have these values, you can calculate the mean kinetic energy using the formula: KE = 0.5 * m * ((v_final)^2 - (v_initial)^2), where m is the mass and v is the velocity.
