Notes

Formula: KE = ½mv²

Where:
• KE = Kinetic Energy
• m = mass of the object
• v = velocity of the object

Units:
• Metric: Joules (J) = kg·m²/s²
• Imperial: foot-pounds (ft·lb)

Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. It increases with the square of velocity, meaning doubling the speed quadruples the kinetic energy.
