Answer:

Sorry if I'm wrong but it might be B

Step-by-step explanation:

In physics, The kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity, Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes
