The graph that best shows the relationship between an object's mass and its kinetic energy (assuming constant velocity) would be a linear graph.
The equation for kinetic energy is given by the formula: KE = 0.5 * m * v^2, where KE is the kinetic energy, m is the mass of the object, and v is the velocity of the object.
Since we are assuming constant velocity, the term v^2 remains constant. Therefore, the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the object's mass.
Hence, the graph would be a straight line with a positive slope, where the mass is on the x-axis and the kinetic energy is on the y-axis. As the mass increases, the kinetic energy will also increase in a linear fashion.
