An object that is in motion has kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy is the energy that an object possesses due to its motion. The kinetic energy of an object depends on its mass and velocity. An object with a greater mass or velocity will have higher kinetic energy.

The formula for calculating kinetic energy is:

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2

Where mass is the object’s mass in kilograms, and velocity is the object’s velocity in meters per second.

For example, a car traveling 60 miles per hour has higher kinetic energy than a car traveling 30 miles per hour because its velocity is more significant. Similarly, a truck traveling 60 miles per hour has more kinetic energy than a car traveling at the same speed because its mass is more significant.
