Give three examples in which a body possesses kinetic energy.

Open in App

Solution

Kinetic energy: Energy possessed by a body due to its motion.
$K i n e t i c e n e r g y = \frac{1}{2} \times m a s s \times {(v e l o c i t y)}^{2}$
Ex: A shooting arrow has kinetic energy.
A stone rolling down a hill has kinetic energy.
A running train has kinetic energy.
A speeding car has kinetic energy.
