In this lesson, we will learn how to calculate the kinetic energy of a moving particle of mass 𝑚 that moves with a velocity of magnitude 𝑣.

Students will be able to

recall and state the definition of kinetic energy,
calculate the kinetic energy of an object given its mass and velocity,
calculate the mass or velocity of an object given its kinetic energy,
solve real-world problems involving kinetic energy,
calculate kinetic energy when the velocity is given in vector form,
use kinetic energy in combination with Newton’s second law to solve problems,
use kinetic energy in combination with the equations of motion to solve problems.
