aKINETIC ENERGY IS ENERGY OF MOVEMENT
Anything that's moving has kinetic energy
KINETIC ENERGY = 1/2 X MASS X SPEED (squared)
Kinetic energy of something depends on MASS and SPEED
The more it weighs and the faster its going, the bigger its kinetic energy will be...:)
KINETIC ENERGY TRANSFERRED IS WORK DONE
When a car is moving it has kinetic energy
A moving car can have a lot of kinetic energy - to slow a car down this kinetic energy needs to be converted into other types of energy (using the law of conservation of energy)
To stop a car, the kinetic energy (1/2mv (squared)) has to be converted to heat energy as friction between the wheels and…
