Like searched the internet and everyone is saying that it is an energy due to speed or something but like I don’t get it. How can something like kinetic energy exists if there is no such thing as speed( I think like speed is no such thing as gravitation or nuclear speed is something else it is not similar like nuclear or gravity)
In: Physics
Not sure what you mean by “no such thing as speed”. Momentum is most certainly a thing, and that is related to mass and speed of an object.
I think what you mean is that speed isn’t a force. Which is true. Speed is just a way energy manifests. Forces are ways to move energy around.
Kinetic energy is just the energy contained in an object. You can change it by applying a force to it. For example, hitting the object with another moving object will change its kinetic energy. The force involved is the electromagnetic force since that is the force responsible for objects not moving through each other.
