We hear the term "Energy" a lot in physics. Here we'll discuss about the notion about energy.
When we talk about energy in physics we're basically refering to the "capacity for doing work." It is a scalar quantity. One of the important concept related to the energy is the "Law of conservation of energy."
Law of conservation of energy: "It states for an isolated system, the total energy remains constant—it is said to be conserved over time. Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it transforms from one form to another."
Some form energy that we know are,
We'll derive the formula for the kinetic energy. From the kinematics we know,
$$v^{2}=u^{2}+2ad$$
and from Newtons second law
$$F=ma$$
If we start an object at rest then the initial velocity is zero (i.e. $u=0$). Then from the definition of work,
\begin{align*} W&=F\times d\\ &=m\times a\times d\\ &=m\times \frac{v^{2}}{2d}\times d \\ &=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}\end{align*}
Thus,
$$W=E=\frac{1}{2}mv^{2}$$
$Ex.$ An object of mass $4kg$ is moving at a speed of $30ms^{-1}$. Calculate the Kinetic energy of an object?
$sol^{n}$=1800$J$
