Kinetic Energy: Example Problems

This video gives an explanation of kinetic and contains several examples for calculating kinetic energy, mass and velocity using the kinetic energy equation.

Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. If an object is in motion then it has kinetic energy. It is also defined as the work needed to accelerate an object from rest to its known velocity. The object will maintain its kinetic energy unless a force acts upon the object to change its velocity. The same amount of work is done on the body when stopping it from its known speed to a state of rest. This is known as the work energy theorem.

There are different types of kinetic energy such as vibrational and rotational kinetic energy. This video will focus on translational kinetic energy. That is the energy of an object as it moves from one place to another.
