Which kind of energy does matter have when it is in motion?

1 answer

When matter is in motion, it possesses kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is the energy associated with the motion of an object and is dependent on both the mass of the object and its velocity. The formula for kinetic energy (KE) is given by:

\[ KE = \frac{1}{2}mv^2 \]

where \( m \) is the mass of the object and \( v \) is its velocity.
