Question

Greater the mass of a body, smaller is its kinetic energy.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is B False

1. Kinetic energy of a body is given by$\frac{1}{2}m{v}^2$ where m is the mass of a body and v is the velocity of a body.
2. The kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of a body.
3. So greater the mass, the greater the kinetic energy of a body, provided velocity remains constant.

Hence, the given statement is false.
