Question

When the speed of a moving object is doubled, its:

A.

Acceleration is doubled

B.

Kinetic energy is doubled

C.

Kinetic energy increases four times

D.

Weight is doubled

Correct option is C

The kinetic energy (KE) of a moving object is given by the formula:
= 1/22

Where:
m is the mass of the object
v is the velocity (or speed) of the object

The kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity. Therefore, if the velocity is doubled, the kinetic energy increases by a factor of 4.
