Answer:


\boxed{\bold { \large { \boxed {KE=(1)/(2) mv^2}}}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Kinetic energy formula


\displaystyle KE=(1)/(2) mv^2


\displaystyle KE \Rightarrow \sf kinetic \ energy \ (J)


\displaystyle m \Rightarrow \sf mass \ (kg)


\displaystyle v \Rightarrow \sf velocity \ (m/s)

The equation for Kinetic Energy is KE = 1/2 m v^2, where m is the mass, and v is the velocity. The velocity in this equation is squared, which means that it is exponential. That means that as the velocity increases, you will be multiplying by a bigger and bigger number! KE = 18 joules!
