The kinetic energy of an object is primarily impacted by its **mass** and **speed**. The formula for kinetic energy (KE) is given by:
\[ KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \]
where:
- \( KE \) is the kinetic energy,
- \( m \) is the mass of the object,
- \( v \) is the speed of the object.
Thus, the correct answer is **mass and speed**.
\[ KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \]
where:
- \( KE \) is the kinetic energy,
- \( m \) is the mass of the object,
- \( v \) is the speed of the object.
Thus, the correct answer is **mass and speed**.
