Question

What is kinetic energy of an object? Derive an expression for kinetic energy of an object?

Answer 1

The kinetic energy of a moving body is defined as the energy possessed by a body due to its state of motion. The expression for kinetic energy of a moving body is                                        1/2(mv^2),where m=mass and v=velocity.

Answer 2

Answer:

kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by it due to its motion . in fact , kinetic energy of an object moving with a certain velocity is equal to the work done to make it acquire that velocity.

Explanation:

kinetic energy of an object = 1/2mv^2
