Kinetic Energy: The energy of an object because of its motion is called its kinetic energy. Its SI unit is Joule (J). A flying bird, a running man, a moving train and a swinging bat are some examples of bodies with kinetic energy. Kinetic energy of a body moving with certain velocity is equal to the work done on it to make it acquire that velocity. Kinetic energy of an object increases with its speed.
· Due to kinetic energy, a bullet fired from a gun can pierce a target.
· A moving hammer, drives a nail into a wooden block. Due to its motion, it has kinetic energy or ability to do work.
The kinetic energy of a body of mass m moving with a velocity v is
Sometimes, a large rock from space hits the earth’s surface at a very high speed. Its huge kinetic energy creates a large crater on the earth’s surface. One such crater was formed thousands of years ago at Lonar in Maharashtra. The diameter of this crater is 1.8 km.
Expression for Kinetic Energy: Suppose a body of mass “m” moving with a uniform velocity “u”. Force “F” starts acting on it in the horizontal direction and displaces it through a distance of “s” and it attains a velocity “v”. Then, work done to increases its velocity from “u” to “v”.
According to equation of motion:
So, as the object starts from rest and distance travelled is x
(1)
According to the definition of Force
F = ma
Or
Putting the value of a in the Equation (1), we get
But Fx is the work done by the force on the body. It should be equal to the increase in the kinetic energy of the body as it moves from A to B. Also, since the kinetic energy at A was zero, the increase in kinetic energy should be equal to the kinetic energy at B. So, we conclude the following:
The kinetic energy of a body of mass m moving with a speed v is
Example:Find the kinetic energy of a ball of mass 200 g moving at a speed of 20 cm/s.
Solution The kinetic energy is
Given m= 200g = 0.2 Kg
v = 20 cm/s = 0.2m/s
Q. If a stone of mass 3 kg be thrown with a kinetic energy of 37.5 J, find its velocity.
Solution: Here, mass m = 3 kg, K.E. = 37.5 J, velosity of stone, v = ?

Being a parent, I saw my daughter improvement in her studies by seeing a good result in all day to day compititive exam TMO, NSO, IEO etc and as well as studies. I have got a fruitful result from my daughter.
My experience with Abhyas academy is very good. I did not think that my every subject coming here will be so strong. The main thing is that the online tests had made me learn here more things.
About Abhyas metholodology the teachers are very nice and hardworking toward students.The Centre Head Mrs Anu Sethi is also a brilliant teacher.Abhyas has taught me how to overcome problems and has always taken my doubts and suppoeted me.
Abhyas Methodology is very good. It is based on according to student and each child manages accordingly to its properly. Methodology has improved the abilities of students to shine them in future.
My experience with Abhyas is very good. I have learnt many things here like vedic maths and reasoning also. Teachers here first take our doubts and then there are assignments to verify our weak points.
A marvelous experience with Abhyas. I am glad to share that my ward has achieved more than enough at the Ambala ABHYAS centre. Years have passed on and more and more he has gained. May the centre flourish and develop day by day by the grace of God.
It was good as the experience because as we had come here we had been improved in a such envirnment created here.Extra is taught which is beneficial for future.
I have spent a wonderful time in Abhyas academy. It has made my reasoning more apt, English more stronger and Maths an interesting subject for me. It has given me a habbit of self studying
It was a good experience with Abhyas Academy. I even faced problems in starting but slowly and steadily overcomed. Especially reasoning classes helped me a lot.
One of the best institutes to develope a child interest in studies.Provides SST and English knowledge also unlike other institutes. Teachers are co operative and friendly online tests andPPT develope practical knowledge also.
