Want this question answered?
It will decrease if the object moves upward; decrease if the object moves downward.
kinetic energy of object=1/2 (mv2 ) mass of that object remains constant through out the motion so K.E. remains constant.. if some how mass decreasing then by formula we can see that the kinetic energy will also decrease.
an object has no kinetic energy if it is not moving
If an object has kinetic energy, then almost BY DEFINITION it has mechanical energy. "Mechanical energy" is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.
kinetic energyThe energy of motion is kinetic energy.
Temperature is the average Kinetic energy of molecules in an object. A hot object has more kinetic energy and a cold object has less kinetic energy.
It will decrease if the object moves upward; decrease if the object moves downward.
No: Upon being heated, the average kinetic energy of the particles that compose the object increases.
Decreasing the mass or Decreasing the velocity
It could be an increase or decrease in its kinetic energy, or simply a change in the direction of motion.

an object has no kinetic energy if it is not moving
kinetic energy is the energy an object has by virtue of its motion- therefore any object that is moving possesses kinetic energy ( and the kinetic energy is proportional to both the mass of the object and the object's velocity, according to the equation KINETIC ENERGY= 1/2 mv2)
Potential energy is the energy contained in the position of an object, so object hanging on a tree would be potential energy.
If an object has kinetic energy, then almost BY DEFINITION it has mechanical energy. "Mechanical energy" is the sum of kinetic energy and potential energy.
Kinetic energy is converted into thermal energy through friction. When a moving object is stopped by some sort of friction, the decrease in the object's kinetic energy is converted into equal amounts of thermal energy. Considering the Law of Conservation of Energy states that the energy in a closed system remains constant, it is impossible that the kinetic energy of an object could be lost altogether, so rather it is simply transformed into a different type of energy, thermal energy.
