What happens to the kinetic energy when

i ) The mass of the body is doubled at constant velocity

ii ) The velocity of the body is doubled at constant velocity

iii ) The mass of the body is doubled but the velocity is reduced to

half.

EK = 1/2 m * v2

i) when mass is doubled with the velocity constant then K. E. = 1/2 (2m) * v2

=> 2 { 1/2 m * v2}

=> the kinetic energy would be doubled.

ii) I cant understand it as u are increasing the velocity and saying it constant. 

If, the v is doubled ith the mass constant, then the Kinetic Energy would become 4 times.

iii) if the mass is doubked and velocity halved, then the kinetic energy would be Halved

Hope the answer is right.

please kindly check if the (ii) question is right or wrong.....

thank you

1..if mass doubled then kinetic energy also gets doubled.. 2..if velocity doubled with constant mass then kinetic energy becomes 4 times the initial kinetic energy.. 3..if mass doubled and velocity reduced to half kinetic energy will be half the initial value.. as kineric energy= 1/2mv2
