Which characteristic will be affected by increasing the speed of an object from 30 meters per second ( ms ) to 40 meters per second( ms )?(1 point) Responses gravitational attraction gravitational attraction weight weight mass mass kinetic energy

Answer 1

The characteristic that will be affected by increasing the speed of an object from 30 meters per second (m/s) to 40 meters per second (m/s) is kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy is given by the formula:

\[ KE = \frac{1}{2} mv^2 \]

where \(m\) is the mass of the object and \(v\) is its velocity. Since the speed is increasing, the kinetic energy will increase as well.
