The formula for Kinetic Energy of an object is mv2/2

where m: mass of object

and v:velocity of object

Therefore when the speed of an object is tripled, then its kinetic energy becomes 9 times

What happens to kinetic energy if the velocity is tripled?

EXPLANATION:- We know that:- K.E = 1/2 m v^2 => K.E is directly proportional to the square of velocity. Conclusion:- If velocity becomes tripled than K.E. becomes Nine times to its initial value.


The kinetic energy of the object moving with a velocity of 5 meter per second is 25 joules. What will be the kinetic energy when the velocity is tripled?

The object has a mass of 2kg. When velocity is tripled the kinetic energy becomes 225 joules.


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.


When kinetic energy increases what happens to the mass and velocity?

Kinetic energy of a mass is directly proportional to two variables: its mass and speed. Many mistake kinetic energy as being proportional to mass and velocity; it is, in fact, mass and speed. (With all technicalities aside, the speed is the factor that matters in computing kinetic energy of an object or a mass). Kinetic Energy = 0.5mv2 (m = mass and v = speed of the mass) Therefore, if the speed of the object increases, the kinetic energy increases. If the speed of the object decreases, the kinetic energy decreases. Similarly, if the mass of the object increases while traveling, its kinetic energy increases. If the mass of the object decreases, the kinetic energy decreases. All has to do with the directly proportional relationship between the two variables and the kinetic energy.


What energy depends on its speed and mass?

Kinetic energy is dependent on speed and mass. The formula for kinetic energy is (1/2)mv2, where m is mass and v is velocity.


What is the speed of an object increases its kinetic energy .?

The kinetic energy depends on both mass and speed. If either mass or speed increase, the kinetic energy will increase as well.


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.


Is doubling a kinetic energy source by mass bigger than when you double its speed?

Doubling the mass will double the kinetic energy. Doubling the speed will increase kinetic energy by a factor 22 = 4.


What happens to the kinetic energy when you increase the speed but keep the mass constant?

the speed will make the kinetic energy smaller.


Determined by mass and speed?

Kinetic Energy.


Kinetic energy is related to an objects?

Kinetic energy is the energy of movement. It is related to an object's mass, and to its speed.


Why is there not that much kinetic energy in an iceberg?

Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed. If an object doesn't move quickly, it will usually not have much kinetic energy. Or it might, depending on the mass. Make some assumptions about the mass of your iceberg, and its speed, and do the calculations for the amount of kinetic energy (which is equal to 1/2 x mass x speed squared).
