Let the scale factor be x.

4.5 [in] * x = 3 [in]

x = 3 / 4.5 = 1 / 1.5.

Your drawing has to be reduced by a factor of 1.5 to fit to the ad.

What will happened to the ke if its velocity is reduced by 12 times?

Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed. If you reduce the speed by a factor of 12, the kinetic energy will reduce by a factor of 12 x 12 = 144.Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed. If you reduce the speed by a factor of 12, the kinetic energy will reduce by a factor of 12 x 12 = 144.Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed. If you reduce the speed by a factor of 12, the kinetic energy will reduce by a factor of 12 x 12 = 144.Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed.
