    Kinetic energy, size of object, and force applied

    Kinda looking to confirm what I already suspect. All things being equal, if two objects have the same kinetic energy, does the fact that one is larger and heavier than the other (although at a slower velocity) mean anything? Specifically when comparing bullets. One bullet .451" in diameter...
