Kinetic energy is a form of energy, not used.
The law of conservation of energy states: 'Energy can neither be created nor destroyed, just converted from one form to another'. This means that kinetic is just a form of energy seen, transofrmed from a different energy.
Take a car for example. The fuel has chemical energy and when burned is transofmed to kinetic energy to make the car move, sound, heat and light.
Chemical energy = Kinetic energy + Sound energy + Thermal energy + Light energy.
Via Einstein's equation, it must not be forgotten that mass is a form of energy (E = mc2)
Kinetic energy is the energy which possesses motion. It is used when there is motion.
Potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy when it is used to do work.
The same units as for any type of energy. There is no special unit for kinetic energy.
Kinetic energy is used when you ride a Horse
kinetic energy is used in rolarcoasters! fun!
Potential and kinetic energy
No, kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. It is actively being used when an object is in motion. Stored energy that is not being used is typically referred to as potential energy.
Kinetic energy
Friction is produced and kinetic energy is used
Your car.
the brakes on a bicycle when used turn kinetic energy into chemical energy.
Kinetic energy is the type of energy associated with movement. It is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. As an object moves, its kinetic energy increases.
