We want to look at several ways that we can find the kinetic
energy of an object.
One method is to find the velocity of the object, and then use
K=1/2mv2
Another method is to find the work done, which tells us by how much
the kinetic energy has changed.
A ball of mass 2 kg starts from rest. Find its
final Kf for each example.
It is accelerated at 5 m/s2 for
2 s.
