Question

If identical objects are moving at the same speed, how can the kinetic energy of one of the objects be increased?

Answer 1

Answer:

It turns out that an object's kinetic energy increases as the square of its speed. ... In words: Kinetic energy equals the mass of the moving object times the square of that object's speed (v2).
