At a glance:KE = ½mv². Complements work-energy-theorem and momentum.

Formula

KE = ½·m·v².

$$KE = \tfrac{1}{2}\,m\,v^2$$

How to Use

  1. Enter mass and velocity.
  2. The tool returns the energy.

Case Studies

m=1000, v=20

KE = 200 kJ.

FAQ

Relativistic?

At v≪c, KE≈½mv²; otherwise use (γ−1)mc².
