Question

The mathematiccal relationships between kinetic energy and the mass of an object

Answer 1

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to mass, and mass to kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity of the moving mass. The equation for Kinetic Energy is: KE = 1/2 mv2.

Answer 2

The equation for Kinetic Energy is: KE = 1/2 mv2. Kinetic energy has a direct relationship with mass, meaning that as mass increases so does the Kinetic Energy of an object. The same is true of velocity. ... We must consider both the speed and mass of objects when considering the outcomes of collisions.
