If velocity of a body is twice of previous velocity, then kinetic energy will become

A

2 times

B

`(1)/(2)` times

C

4 times

D

1 times

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Kinetic energy `= (1)/(2)mv^(2) therefore K.E. prop v`
If velocity is doubled then kinetic energy will become four times.
