Multiple choice general knowledge science & technology

The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends upon what factors?

  1. temperature and entropy

  2. mass and velocity

  3. height and mass

  4. none of the above

B Correct answer
Explanation

Kinetic energy is given by KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity. Temperature and entropy relate to thermodynamics, not mechanics. Height and mass determine potential energy (PE = mgh), not kinetic energy.
