Kinetic Energy



Kinetic Energy KE is the energy associated with the motion of an object .
Kinetic Energy exists whenever an object which has mass is in motion with some velocity. Everything you see moving about has kinetic energy.
KE = 1/2 mv(square)


where
KE = Energy (in Joules)
m = mass (in kilograms)
v = velocity (in meters/sec)
