Question

What are the two factors on which the kinetic energy depends? Explain.

Answer 1

1. Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body by virtue of its motion.
   Kinetic energy KE = $\frac{1}{2}m{v}^2$
   Where $m$= mass of body $v$= velocity of body
2. Following are the two factors on which kinetic energy depends.
   1. It is directly proportional to the mass ($m$) of the body.
   2. It is directly proportional to the square of the velocity($v$) of the body.
