Kinetic energy is the energy of motion.
The formula for kinetic energy is given as
KE = (0.5) m v²
where m = mass of object , v = speed of object.
an object having some speed and mass will have kinetic energy while an object at rest will not have any kinetic energy since the speed of object at rest is zero.
Since at rest speed is zero. an object has kinetic energy only when it is in motion.
