Question

Two identical masses are moving down a slop. One mass is traveling twice as fast as the other mass. How does the kinetic energy compare to the other?

A. The faster object has the same energy as the slower object
B. The faster object has less kinetic energy than the slower object
C. The faster object has half as much kinetic energy as the slower object
D. The faster object has four times as much energy as the slower object
(Please give me a reasonable answer)

Answer 1

D. The faster object has four times as much energy as the slower object.

Answer 2

I believe it is D because the more weight the more total speed it will end with
