)The formula for calculating kinetic energy is KE = 1/2 * m * v^2, where m is the mass of the object and v is its velocity.
Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its movement. The faster an object is moving, the more kinetic energy it has.
Yes, two objects with the same kinetic energy can have different masses. The mass and velocity of an object both contribute to its kinetic energy, so an object with a smaller mass can have the same kinetic energy as an object with a larger mass if it is moving at a higher velocity.
Doubling the velocity of an object will quadruple its kinetic energy. This is because the kinetic energy formula includes the velocity squared, meaning that any change in velocity will have a larger effect on the kinetic energy.
The unit of measurement for kinetic energy is joules (J). This is the same unit used for work and other forms of energy in the metric system.
