Concepts Covered

Moving objects contain energy. The energy of motion is a kind of mechanical energy. The energy of motion is called kinetic energy. Motion is the change in the position of an object. Speed is the rate at which an object changes its position. The greater the speed of an object, the more energy it possesses. The greater the mass of an object, the more force is needed to change the motion of the object. Energy can be moved from place to place by moving objects.
