A car is traveling at 16 m/s .?

A car is traveling at 16 m/s . How fast would the car need to go to double its kinetic energy? By what factor does the car’s kinetic energy increase if its speed is doubled to 32 m/s ?

i) 16 * √2 ≈ 23 m/sii) 2x the speed means 4x the KE.If you find this helpful, please award Best Answer. You get points too!... Show More

When comparing the same factors but at different values, we use ratios. For example KE/ke = 2 = 1/2 mV^2/1/2 mv^2 = (V/v)^2; so V = v sqrt(2) = 16*1.414 = ? m/s ANS You can do the math.Again KE/ke = (V/v)^2 = 4; so KE = 4 ke, the kinetic energy is quadrupled. ANS.... Show More
