Question

The kinetic energy of the body depends:

  1. On the mass of the body only.
  2. On the velocity of the body only.
  3. Both a and b
  4. Either a or b

hintHint:

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a body in motion. 

The correct answer is: Both a and b


    The kinetic energy of the body depends Both mass and velocity of the body. 
    • A body in motion will have a velocity and a mass.
    • Also, the velocity of the body can vary depending on the frame of reference. 
    • Kinetic energy = 1 half (mass).(velocity)2
    • K.E = 1 halfmv2
