If the velocity of an object is decreased, its_________ energy will be affected.

Open in App

Solution

The kinetic energy $(K E = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2})$ is directly proportional to the square of velocity.
A change in velocity changes the KE of the body.
Hence, if the velocity of an object is decreased, its kinetic energy will be affected.
