Question

What type of energy is associated with the motion of an object?

Answer 1

1. An object can have mechanical energy which can be divided into two types, namely, kinetic and potential energy.
2. If an object is in motion, then the energy associated with it is called kinetic energy.
3. The kinetic energy of an object is given by the expression,

$K=\frac{1}{2}m{v}^2$

Where, $K$ is the kinetic energy, $m$ is the mass of the object and $v$ is its speed.
