Correct choice is (b) False
Best explanation: The formula for kinetic energy (KE) is as follows;
KE = (1/2) x m x v^2
v = Velocity of the object
From the formula, we can infer that the kinetic energy is independent of the acceleration of the object and only depends on the objects instantaneous velocity.
