Kinetic energy is the energy possesed by a body when it is in the state of motion. It is directly proportional to the mass and the velocity of the body in motion. K.E. = 1/2 mv2 where m= mass of body v= velocity of the body

Magic Of Biology

All moving things have kinetic energy. It is energy possessed by an object due to its motion or movement. These include very large things, like planets, and very small ones, like atoms. The heavier a thing is, and the faster it moves, the more kinetic energy it has.

Kinetic energy is defined as the work needed to accelerate (means to increase) a body of a given mass from rest to its started velocity.Having gained this energy during its acceleration.A body maintains this energy unless speed changes. So kinetic energy of an object is the energy possessed by virtue...

Kinetic energy=1/2(m*v^2) where m=mass of the body v=velocity of the body

"kinetic" means motion.. therefore kinetic energy means energy possessed by an object due to its motion. whenever an object has certain velocity, it will certainly have kinetic energy. K.E.= (Half) x mass x (velocity)^2
