Answer:

D) A positive but not linear relationship

Explanation:

This comes from the equation Ek=1/2mv^2

Where Ek is Kinetic Energy, m is mass, and v is the speed (or velocity).

As we can see in the equation, the relation is not linear but quadratic and it is positive.

Answer:

D) A positive but not linear relationship

Explanation:

Speed is equal to distance divided by time. ... Therefore, the kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed). In other words, If there is a twofold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four.
