The correct answer is \({1\over 2}mv^2\)

Key Points

  • ​Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by a moving object. 
  • Mathematically, kinetic energy (KE) is expressed as:
    • \(\Rightarrow KE=\frac{1}{2} mv^2\)
  • Where m is the mass of the object and v is the velocity of the object.
  • Dimension of mass = [M1]
  • Dimension of velocity = [L1T-1]
  • Thus, dimensions of kinetic energy = [M1][L1T-1]2 = [M1L2T-2]
