Answer: K = (m/2)*v^2

Explanation: The kinetic energy is the enrgy that an object has because of the movement of the object, and as the mass of the moving object increases, also should increase the energy (more mass requires more energy to ve moved)

So the equation of the kinetic energy is:

K = (m/2)*v^2

where m is mass and v is velocity squared, this also cna be written as:

half the product of the mass and the squared velocity
