Question

Define Kinetic Energy and give its mathematical relation with momentum.​

Answer 1

Answer:

the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes.

Linear momentum: Linear momentum is the quantity of motion of a moving body. Its magnitude is given by the product of mass and velocity of the body at a given time. It is given by, p=mv. Kinetic energy: Kinetic energy is defined as the energy possessed by a body because of its motion. It is given by, K.

Answer 2

Explanation:

we know that the kinetic energy of a body with a certain velocity is equal to work done on the object to acquire that velocity from rest = ∴K. E=1/2mV2.

There is a relation between kinetic energy and momentum as both the properties are linked with velocity. Momentum gets expressed as a multiplication of velocity and mass, whereas kinetic energy is the product of the square of speed and half of the mass.
