elementary my dear pupil
girls: yall if you really want the definition look at the boys side but if you just asked because you want to have chemistry then go to how you can share s.x from the one who only tells the truth. Michelle Pham
boys: kinetic energy in other words is motion so we need to ask ourselves this question what is motion that may help us understand everything we need and after you finish writing what motion is then go figure out how we can do motion and that's your answer.

kinetic energy:
KE = 1/2 M V2Do you see that ' V2 ' in there ? That says that the KE varies asthe square of the velocity.

K.E. = 1/2 mv2 it is the velocity, v, which increases. All the individual molecules in the gas have more energy and therefore move around faster.

What happens to kinetic energy of an object if the velocity is doubled?
If the speed of an object doubles, its kinetic energy quadruples. This is because velocity is squared in the formula for kinetic energy.
What two factors determine an object kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy is given by the following equaiton: KE = 0.5*m*v^2 Where KE is kinetic energy, m is the object's mass, and v is its velocity. In other words, an object's kinetic energy is dependent on its mass and the square of its velocity. Note that since the velocity term is squared, velocity has a larger effect on kinetic energy than mass. For example, if you double mass, the kinetic energy will also double, but if you double velocity, kinetic energy increases by a factor of four.
How is the gravitational potential energy stored in an object converted into kinetic energy?
Gravity pulls the object and its velocity increases. The kinetic energy of a moving object is 1/2*m*v2
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.
What is the total amount of kinetic energy in an object?
The kinetic energy in an object is EK=mcV where V is the velocity, a vector.
What happens to an object kinetic energy if the object speed increases?
The kinetic energy will increase. Kinetic energy is defined by K=one half mv2 where m is the mass of the object, and v is the velocity of the object. The greater the velocity, the greater the kinetic energy. Since the velocity is squared, increasing it will cause the kinetic energy to grow much faster than if you increased the mass.
What happens when kinetic energy is absorbed as an object moves toward the earth?
The kinetic energy increases as the velocity increases (KE = 1/2mv2) until terminal velocity is reached, at which point the velocity becomes constant, and kinetic energy will no longer increase. The potential energy and kinetic energy will be at equilibrium, where PE = -KE.
What happens to kinetic energy of an object if the velocity is doubled?
If the speed of an object doubles, its kinetic energy quadruples. This is because velocity is squared in the formula for kinetic energy.
What is the final velocity of an object that decreases in kinetic energy and increases in potential energy?
Its final velocity will be zero when it reaches maximum potential energy.
Doing work on an object increases the object's kinetic?
velocity increases
Why does a moving object gain mass?
Mass is the sum of energies, both kinetic and potential. As the velocity increases so does the kinetic energy of object.
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 two factors determine an object kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy is given by the following equaiton: KE = 0.5*m*v^2 Where KE is kinetic energy, m is the object's mass, and v is its velocity.

For example, if you double mass, the kinetic energy will also double, but if you double velocity, kinetic energy increases by a factor of four.
How does the kinetic energy of substance increase?
As the kinetic energy of matter is increased, the temperature increases and phase changes from solid to liquid or liquid to gas occur. If pressure is low enough, sublimation could occur.
How is the gravitational potential energy stored in an object converted into kinetic energy?
Gravity pulls the object and its velocity increases. The kinetic energy of a moving object is 1/2*m*v2
How does potential energy turn to kenetic?
Potential energy turns into kinetic energy when an object at rest begins to move. As velocity increases, KE increases and PE decreases.
What increases as the speed of an object increases?
the kinetic energy of the object
