Question

Explain the term ‘Kinetic Energy’.

Answer 1

1. Kinetic energy is defined as the energy of a body due to its motion.
2. If a body is in motion, it will possess kinetic energy.
3. The formula for kinetic energy is $K.E.=\frac{1}{2}m{v}^2$. ( where $m$ is mass and $v$ is the velocity of the body)
4. Example: a moving car.
