Question

Since the investigative question has two variables, you need to focus on each one separately. Thinking only about the first part of the question, mass, what might be a hypothesis that would illustrate the relationship between mass and kinetic energy? Use the format of "if…then…because…” when writing your hypothesis.

Answer 1

If the mass of an object increases, then the kinetic energy will also increase because a larger mass requires more energy to move at the same velocity.
