Answer:

* energy is proportional to masses. in a graph it would look like a line

* kinetic energy varies with the square of the velocity, In a graph it gives rise to a quadratic curve

Step-by-step explanation:

Kinetic energy is defined by

K = ½ m v²

when analyzing this expression we can see:

* energy is proportional to masses. Therefore, doubling the mass doubles the kinetic energy and if the mass rises 4 times the energy rises 4 times, that is, they are directly proportional, in a graph it would look like a line

* kinetic energy varies with the square of the velocity. Therefore by doubling the speed the energy goes up 4 times. In a graph it gives rise to a quadratic curve
