  where:

  • KE = kinetic energy (Joules)

  • m = mass (kg)

  • v = velocity (m/s)

• 🧮 Reverse Calculation Mode:
  Find velocity (v) or mass (m) from a known kinetic energy:

   

  v = √(2 × KE / m)   m = 2 × KE / v²

• 📏 Supports Custom Units:

  • Mass: kilograms (kg), grams (g), tonnes (t), or pounds (lb)

  • Velocity: m/s, km/h, mph, or ft/s

  Works flawlessly across desktop, tablet, and mobile — ideal for classroom and field use.

• 🔒 Privacy Safe:
  All computations happen locally; your inputs are never stored or transmitted.

💡 How It Works (Simplified):

The Kinetic Energy Mover Tool uses the fundamental equation of motion energy:

Kinetic energy depends quadratically on velocity, meaning a small increase in speed causes a large increase in energy. This relationship is essential in understanding collisions, power systems, and motion efficiency.

📘 Example Calculations:

Example 1️⃣ – Find Kinetic Energy

A 1,000 kg car travels at 20 m/s.

✅ Result: 200 kJ of kinetic energy

Example 2️⃣ – Find Velocity

A baseball has 120 J of kinetic energy and a mass of 0.145 kg.

✅ Result: The baseball moves at about 146 km/h

Example 3️⃣ – Find Mass

A projectile has 2,500 J of energy and travels at 50 m/s.

✅ Result: Mass = 2 kg

🧭 Perfect For:

• 🎓 Physics Students: Understand motion, energy transformation, and speed-mass relationships.
