Question

A bicycle has a kinetic energy of 124 J. What kinetic energy would the bicycle have if it had 

Column A
1.
twice the mass and was moving at the same speed?:
twice the mass and was moving at the same speed?
 
2.
the same mass and was moving with twice the speed?:
the same mass and was moving with twice the speed?
3.
one-half the mass and was moving with the same speed?:
one-half the mass and was moving with the same speed?
4.
the same mass and was moving with one-half the speed?:
the same mass and was moving with one-half the speed?
Column B
a.31 J
b.248 J
c.496 J
d.62 J
Expert Solution
Step 1

We know the formula of the kinetic energy is given as 

K.E = 12mv2 ----- eq 1 

The kinetic energy depends on the mass and velocity

if we put the velocity as a constant then kinetic energy is proportional to the mass. 

K.E m    , where  v2= constant 

Now if the mass of constant then the kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the velocity. 

K.E v2       where m= constant
