The formula for KE:

1/2 x mass x (speed)^2 = KE

The formula should help you be able to dissect.

the higher mass of a particle means it’ll be harder to move, slowing it down and the faster the particle is moving the higher the kinetic energy because there is more movement and pressure within the object with the energy
