Do changes in velocity and mass have the same effect on kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy is equal to one half the mass times the square of the velocity. Thus, changes in velocity and mass do not have the same effect on kinetic energy. If you increase the mass by a factor of 10 at the same velocity, you increase the kinetic energy by a factor of 10. However, if you increase the velocity by a factor of 10 at the same mass, you increase the kinetic energy by a factor of 100.


What happens to the Kinetic energy of atoms as they move from solid to liquid and gas?

I would think that their kinetic energy would decrease significantly as they pass through the mediums of increasing density:)


Why is greater density important in ammunition?

The kinetic energy of a projectile is directly proportional to its mass. When the projectile strikes, it transfers its kinetic energy to the target in the form of damage. For a fixed volume, a greater density means a higher projectile mass (density=mass/volume). Therefore a higher density means greater damage in the form of penetration and fragmentation.


What effect does liquid nitrogen have on molecular kinetic energy?

Temperature is a measure of kinetic energy. Because liquid nitrogen is very cold, a system's kinetic energy will be collisionally transferred to the added liquid nitrogen. Thus, in general, adding liquid nitrogen will decrease a system's kinetic energy. (There are some exceptions where the system has less kinetic energy than the liquid nitrogen, such as liquid helium.)


How does mass and speed effect kinetic energy?

Kinetic Energy is 1/2 mass x the square of speed (KE = 1/2 mv^2)

What will be the effect on kinetic energy by dubbling the mass?

the defining equation for kinetic energy= 1/2 mv2therefore kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass or as kinetic energy increases, mass increases proportionally (and vice versa).therefore if mass is doubled, the kinetic energy is also doubled.


A change in a objects speed has a what effect on its kinetic energy than a change in mass?

Doubling the speed. This is because the (non-relativistic) kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed.


Are Volume and density are the kinetic energy of and object?

No, kinetic energy of an object depends upon mass and velocity. The amount of kinetic energy of an object in translational motion = 1/2mv2, provided the speed is low relative to the speed of light


What is the effect on kinetic energy of molecule when temperature is increased?

Is rolling down a hill potential or kinetic energy?

Yes, because potential energy is energy stored but kinetic is energy in motion.
