What is the Kinetic Energy Calculator?
The Kinetic Energy Calculator computes the energy of an object due to its motion (KE = 0.5 * m * v²).
How to Use This Calculator
1
Enter the mass in kilograms (kg).
2
Enter the velocity in meters per second (m/s).
3
Click 'Calculate' to find the kinetic energy in Joules (J).
Example Calculation
Mass = 10 kg, Velocity = 5 m/s
KE = 0.5 * 10 * 5² = 125 Joules.
Frequently Asked Questions
Pro Tips
- This formula applies to non-relativistic speeds (much slower than light).
- Heavier objects moving fast have massive amounts of kinetic energy.
