Now you will focus on a second hypothesis. This hypothesis can be very similar to the first, but this time you want to focus only on the second variable in question, speed. What could be a hypothesis that would illustrate the relationship between speed and kinetic energy? Use the format of "if…then…because…” when writing your hypothesis.

Answer 1

If the speed of an object increases, then its kinetic energy will also increase because kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed of an object.
