The mass of a moving object increases, but its speed stays the same. What happens to the to the kinetic energyof the object as a result?

The formula for kinetic energy is listed below...

Kinetic Energy = 0.5*mass*velocity^2

As we can see, if we increase the mass of the object, the kinetic energy will increase.
