Answer:

Kinetic energy and mass are directly proportional.

Step-by-step explanation:

The kinetic energy of an object is given by:


K=(1)/(2)mv^2

where

m is the mass of the object

v is the speed of the object

From the equation above, we see that the kinetic energy (K) depends linearly on the mass (m), so kinetic energy and mass are directly proportional to each other.
