• B) Its maximum speed will be 2v and its maximum kinetic energy will be K.
• C) Its maximum speed will be v and its maximum kinetic energy will be 2K.
• D) Its maximum speed will be 2v and its maximum kinetic energy will be 4K.
• E) Its maximum speed will be 4v and its maximum kinetic energy will be 2K.
