If the velocity of an object is doubled , it's kinetic energy is ?

A. Doubled

B.decreased

C. Quadrupled

D. Unaffected

Sagot :

Ek = 1/2 × m × v² ;
Ek...kinetic energy
m...mass
v...velocity 

If we double the velocity,then Ek = 1/2 × m × (2×v)²  = 1/2 × m × 4×v² = 2×m×v²

[tex] \frac{2*m*v ^{2} }{ \frac{1}{2}*m*v^2 } = 4[/tex] so the correct answer is C
