Kinetic Energy
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.

Equation of Kinetic Energy
Example 1

Determine the kinetic energy of a 2000-kg bus that is moving with a speed of 35.0 m/s.

Answer:

Kinetic Energy,


\[ E_K = \frac{1} {2}mv^2 \hfill \\ \]
\[ E_K = \frac{1} {2}(2000)(35)^2 \hfill \\ \]
\[ E_K = 1225000J \hfill \\ \]

    I'm impressed. You're truly well informed and very intelligent. You wrote something that people could understand and made the subject intriguing for everyone. I'm saving this for future use.
