| 释义 | kinetic energySEE SYNONYMS FOR kinetic energy ON THESAURUS.COM noun Physics.the energy of a body or a system with respect to the motion of the body or of the particles in the system. Compare potential energy. Origin of kinetic energyFirst recorded in 1865–70 Words nearby kinetic energykinesthesiometer, kinesthetic sense, kinetheodolite, kinetic, kinetic art, kinetic energy, kinetic friction, kineticism, kinetic potential, kinetics, kinetic theory Dictionary.com UnabridgedBased on the Random House Unabridged Dictionary, © Random House, Inc. 2020 British Dictionary definitions for kinetic energykinetic energy nounthe energy of motion of a body, equal to the work it would do if it were brought to rest The translational kinetic energy depends on motion through space, and for a rigid body of constant mass is equal to the product of half the mass times the square of the speed. The rotational kinetic energy depends on rotation about an axis, and for a body of constant moment of inertia is equal to the product of half the moment of inertia times the square of the angular velocity. In relativistic physics kinetic energy is equal to the product of the increase of mass caused by motion times the square of the speed of light. The SI unit is the joule but the electronvolt is often used in atomic physicsSymbol: E k, K, T Abbreviation: KE Collins English Dictionary - Complete & Unabridged 2012 Digital Edition © William Collins Sons & Co.

Scientific definitions for kinetic energykinetic energy [ kə-nĕt′ĭk ] The energy possessed by a system or object as a result of its motion. The kinetic energy of objects with mass is dependent upon the velocity and mass of the object, while the energy of waves depends on their velocity, frequency, and amplitude, as well as the density of the medium if there is one (as with ocean waves).
