Since kintetic energy is the energy of motion it depends on the two. mass affects inertia and inertia applies to kinetic energy. and speed is applied because the faster it going the more kinetic energy the object has.

∙ 12y agoKinetic energy is measured in joules. A joule is defined as a
((kilogram)(meter)2)/(second)2. This means that the units for the parts of the equation need to multiply to be a kilogram meter squared per second squared. The unit for mass is the kilogram. The unit for velocity is meters per second. Therefore, by multiplying mass by velocity squared we get a joule, the unit for kinetic energy. Therefore, the equation for kinetic energy (KE) is:
KE=.5mv2
Wiki User
∙ 11y agoYes. The formula for kinetic energy is KE = 1/2mv2, where m is mass in kg, and v is speed in m/s.

∙ 11y agoKE = (1/2) m V^2
directly proportional to mass
directly proportional to the square of velocity

What 2 factors does the kinetic energy depend on?
It depends on mass and velocity. ans : it depends on the mass & speed of the moving object. no, it depends on the work & energy.
How do you calculate kinetic energy with mass and velocity?
Kinetic energy = 1/2 (mass) (speed)2 2 x kinetic energy/mass = (speed)2 Speed = square root of ( 2 x kinetic energy/mass )
How does the mass and speed of an object affect the kinetic energy?
Kinetic Energy is 1/2 mass x the square of speed (KE = 1/2 mv^2)
How can a trucks kinetic energy can be increased without increasing its speed?
Drive alongside it in another vehicle and then move stuff onto the truck. This will increase the mass of the [whole] truck and so increase its KE. This is dangerous so do not try it!
What 2 factors determine how much kinetic energy something has?
Good guess but the real answer is mass and speed.
What does the amount of kinetic energy of a moving object depend?
The kinetic energy depends on the object's mass, and on its speed.
what factors does the kinetic energy of an object depend on?
The mass and speed of the object
What factors does kinetic energy of an object depend on?
The mass and speed of the object
What does kinetic energy depend on in addition to speed?
Kinetic energy can be expressed by the equation: Ek= ½ mv2. Therefore in addition to speed (v), kinetic energy is also dependent on mass (m).
What factors does the kinetic energy of an object depend on (apex)?
The mass and speed of the object
What does the amount of kenetic energy that a moving object has depend on?
The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends on its mass and speed.
What two items does kinetic energy depend on?
If you look at the formula for kinetic energy, it is quite obvious what those factors are. The answer is mass, and speed.
What 2 factors does the kinetic energy depend on?

What does the amount of kinetic energy a moving object has depend on?
The object's mass and speed.
What amount of energy are moving objectb has depend on its mass and speed?
kinetic energy KE = 1/2 mv^2
what factors of the kinetic energy of a body depend on?
The factors of the kinetic energy of a body depend on mass of moving body.
Does kinetic energy increase with speed and time?
Time is not a factor, speed is velocity and velocity equates to kinetic energy. E=Mass * Velocity squared.
