assuming its not starting at zero, if an object velocity is doubled, its kinetic energy (KE) is four times. If its trebled , its KE is nine times
equation : KE = (m*v^2)/2 joules
m=mass
v=velocity

Inertia is the property of any object that reists any change in?
Inertia is a property of matter in which an object resists a change in motion.
The greater the mass of an object the greater. is?
The greater the mass of an object the greater it's inertia The greater the mass of an object the greater it's inertia The greater the mass of an object the greater it's inertia
What happens to an objects speed if it travels with zero acceleration?
That means, of course, that the velocity (and the speed) doesn't change.
What is angular momentum?
Angular momentum is an expression of an objects mass and rotational speed. Momentem is the velocity of an object times its mass, or how fast something is moving times how much it weighs. Therefore angular momentum is the objects mass times the angular velocity where angular velocity is how fast something is rotating expressed in terms like revolutions per minute or radians per second or degrees per second.
Which of Newton's laws fits this statement - objects keep on doing what they are doing?
The first law comes closest. Objects have a tendency not to change their velocity.
What happens to an objects kinetic energy when the velocity is doubled?
toaster
Objects with more mass have ---- inertia?
Yes, inertia=mass*velocity
Do Objects with more mass have more inertia?
Yes, inertia=mass*velocity
An objects resistance to change in motion?
Inertia. Inertia applies to both increases and decreases in velocity.
A change in a objects velocity is called?
either resistance or inertia
What affects an objects inertia?
The mass of the object and the velocity of the object.
Why is momentum caused?
momentum is caused by inertia. all objects have inertia, which means if they are moving at a certain velocity or are at rest they will continue to move at that velocity or remain at rest unless acted on by a force. Objects of more mass have greater inertia, so the amount of momentum is equal to the product of an objects mass and the magnitude of its velocity.
Why must a force be exerted on an object to change velocity?
To overcome the objects inertia
Why must a force be exerted on a object to change its velocity?
To overcome the objects inertia
Why must a force be exerted on an object to change its velocity?
To overcome the objects inertia
What happens to the strength of gravity when the distance is doubled?
When the distance between the centers of two objects is doubled, the gravitational forces between the objects are reduced by 75% .
What property that a moving object has due to its mass and velocity?
The property you are looking for is the objects momentum. Momentum = Mass * Velocity.
