What is kinetic energy? Definition.
0:02
Kinetic energy is the energy an object
0:05
has because of its motion. Any object
0:08
that is moving, no matter how big or
0:10
small, possesses kinetic energy.
0:13
Explanation. The faster an object moves
0:16
or the heavier it is, the more kinetic
0:18
energy it has. When you run, drive a car
0:21
or drop a ball, the motion in each case
0:24
comes with kinetic energy. If the object
0:26
stops moving, its kinetic energy becomes
0:29
zero. In physics, kinetic energy comes
0:32
from work done to make an object move.
0:35
The harder you push, the faster it moves
0:38
and the more energy it gains.
