$E = \frac{{{P^2}}}{{2m}}.$ If m is constant then $E \propto {P^2}$
$⇒$$\frac{{{E_2}}}{{{E_1}}} = {\left( {\frac{{{P_2}}}{{{P_1}}}} \right)^2} = {\left( {\frac{{1.2P}}{P}} \right)^2} = 1.44$
$⇒$ ${E_2} = 1.44{E_1} = {E_1} + 0.44{E_1}$
${E_2} = {E_1} + 44\% $ of ${E_1}$
i.e. the kinetic energy will increase by $44\%$
