What is the kinetic energy of an object?
Advertisements
उत्तर
Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has because of its motion. The kinetic energy of an item moving at a specific velocity equals the effort required to attain that velocity.
The energy an object possesses due to its motion is called kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy (ke) = `1/2 mv^2`
Where m = mass of the object
v = velocity of the object
