LESSON 3 – KE and PE
... If you double the mass, you double the kinetic energy. If you increase the speed of a moving object you increase the kinetic energy. BUT… If you double the speed, you quadruple the kinetic energy. This is why even if you are slightly above the speed limit, you increase the kinetic energy of a moving ...
