Introduction to Kinetic Energy with Example Problem

The video tutorial introduces kinetic energy, explaining it as the energy associated with the motion of an object. The equation for kinetic energy is given as KE = 1/2 mV^2, where m is mass and V is velocity. The units of kinetic energy are discussed, showing how they equate to Joules. The video also covers the properties of kinetic energy, noting it cannot be negative and is a scalar quantity. An example problem is solved, comparing the kinetic energy of a bike and a Prius, demonstrating the application of the kinetic energy formula.
