Answer

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion.

It depends on the mass of the object and the square of its velocity. The formula is:

KE = 1\over2 mv2

Where:

  • m = mass of the object (in kg)
  • v = velocity of the object (in m/s)

The SI unit of kinetic energy is joule (J).
