Select the graph that shows the correct relationship between kinetic energy and mass.
Select the graph that shows the correct relationship between kinetic energy and speed.
Hint: If one object is moving at 2 times the speed of a second object and the objects have the same mass, then the first object has 4 times the kinetic energy of the second object.
In all energy transformations, the types of energy that decrease are converted into the types of energy that increase.
