Derive an expression for Kinetic energy possessed by an object of mass m, moving with
a velocity v.
Answers
Answer:
★ Kinetic Energy:
The energy possessed by an object due to its motion is called as kinetic energy.
Derivation:
Let us consider an object of mass "m" which is at rest on smooth horizontal plane.
Let a Force ,F acts on the object and let the object from rest moves from point A to point B and covers a displacement S.
The Work done by Force on the object is :
Workdone = Force x displacement.
W=F×S ____(1).
From third equation of motion;

By Newtons second law of motion:

The Work Done appears as kinetic energy of the body.

Answer:
Photosynthesis, the process by which green plants and certain other organisms transform light energy into chemical energy. During photosynthesis in green plants, light energy is captured and used to convert water, carbon dioxide, and minerals into oxygen and energy-rich organic compounds.
