A physical quantity that, traditionally, is defined to be the ability to do work, where `work' is the application of a force over a distance. The energy that a body possesses by virtue of its motion is called kinetic energy, the kinetic energy (KE) of a body of mass m traveling at velocity v being given by: KE=1/2mv2. In order to change the velocity of a body, a force must be applied, the resulta...
