Which form of energy is associated with an object due to its motion?
Correct answer: C. Kinetic Energy
- A. Potential Energy
- B. Thermal Energy
- C. Kinetic Energy
- D. Chemical Energy
Explanation
This is correct because kinetic energy is directly linked to motion and given by (1/2)mv².

About Kinetic Energy
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, given for a nonrelativistic object by K = ½mv², so it depends on mass and the square of speed. Questions connect kinetic energy with work through the work energy theorem, calculate changes in kinetic energy, and distinguish it from momentum and potential energy.
