How is your kinetic energy related to your speed?
Kinetic Energy is proportional to the square of the velocity. If the velocity is doubled, the KE is 4 times as much.
I don't remember ever seeing the KE formula derived. I derived it from motion and work equations.
1) Work input = Force * distance
Work input causes increase in KE
Force * distance = increase in KE
If the object is at rest initially,
2) Work input = Force * distance = KE
3) Force * distance = KE
Force = mass * acceleration
4) F = m*a
Acceleration = (Vf - Vi) ÷ time, Vi = 0,Vf = V
5) a = V ÷ t
Substituting V ÷ t for a
6) F = m*( V ÷ t)
Distance = Average velocity * time
7) Average velocity = (Vi + Vf) ÷ 2, Vi = initial velocity, Vf =final velocity
If the object is at rest initially, Vi = 0, Vf is the velocity at specific time.
8) Average velocity = V ÷ 2
9) Distance = (V ÷ 2) * time
10)Force * distance = KE
……………….From Eq.#6………..From Eq#9
11) F = m*( V ÷ t)…… Distance = (V ÷ 2) * t
12)Force * distance = m*( V ÷ t) * (V ÷ 2) * t
Be careful of numerators and denominators. What is divided by what!
13)Force * distance = (M * V^2) Substituting from Eq #2 reversed, Work input = Force * distance
14)Work input = (M * V^2) ÷ 2
15) Kinetic Energy = ½ * Mass velocity^2
16)Work input = ½ * Mass velocity^2
There it is, the Kinetic energy formula derived from work and motion equations.
kinetic energy is calculated by:
1/2*M * V^2 where V is velocity.
Speed is the scaler component of velocity.
kinetic enery is the energy in motion and speed is measure on how fast or slow a certain movement.
By the second power ...
in other words, you double the speed and the energy increases by a factor of 4.
Triple itand the energy goes to 9 times.
Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of speed, which means that the greater the speed, the greater the kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy of an object whose mass is 'M' is
[ 1/2 ] [ M ] [ object's SPEED ]2
How are kinetic energy and speed related?
Kinetic energy is the energy of movement. It is related to an object's mass, and to its speed.
The kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed). In other words, If there is a twofold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four. If there is a threefold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of nine.
A car is not energy; it may have energy. The energy related to movement is called kinetic energy.

The higher the speed the more the kinetic energy.
Kinetic Energy = (1/2) x mass x speed squared

Kinetic Energy is 1/2 mass x the square of speed (KE = 1/2 mv^2)
Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed. If you reduce the speed by a factor of 12, the kinetic energy will reduce by a factor of 12 x 12 = 144.Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed. If you reduce the speed by a factor of 12, the kinetic energy will reduce by a factor of 12 x 12 = 144.Kinetic energy is proportional to the square of the speed.

Time is not a factor, speed is velocity and velocity equates to kinetic energy. E=Mass * Velocity squared.
"Kinetic energy" is energy related to movement. If there is no movement, there is no kinetic energy.
