Why does the nickel have double the kinetic energy compared to the penny?

• The mass of the nickel is double the amount of the penny.

• The speed of the nickel is double the amount of the penny.

• The nickel does not have double the kinetic energy of the penny as they are equal.

• The nickel is shinier than the penny so its kinetic energy is higher.
