What is kinetic energy in physics?

Open in App

Solution

In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion
The equation of the kinetic energy is $K = \frac{1}{2} m v^{2}$ Where m represents the mass and v is the velocity
Objects at rest possess zero kinetic energy.
