Want this question answered?
Kinetic energy = (1/2) x mass x speed squared. An object will have no kinetic energy if it doesn't move.
It has no direct affect on the speed of an object. It does affect the energy content of the speeding object.

Does speed 'effect' the gravitational potential energy of an object? No, but gravitational potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy - so the gravitational potential energy can effect the speed. Ep = mgh Energy Potential = mass * 9.81 (gravity) * height Speed / Velocity is absent from that equation.

The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends on its mass and speed.

The kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its speed.
speed
kinetic energy is proportional to square of speed. ke=.5m*v*v
More intertia makes it so more energy is needed in order to change the speed.

Because then more kenetic energy is transfered
Increasing the speed will increase the KINETIC energy, not the potential energy. Of course, the potential energy may eventually be converted into kinetic energy, for example if the object moves upwards.
Kinetic energy is the mass times one half the velocity squared. KE = ½mv².
