This video shows how to derive an equation to calculate the amount of kinetic energy stored by a moving object. The derivation is done using the idea of work done on a system, a kinematic equation, and Newton’s 2nd Law. Below are videos that cover how to think about energy conservation using energy bar charts, and videos that show how to derive the equation for the work done on a system, the spring potential energy stored by a stretched or compressed material, and the gravitational potential energy stored by a mass and the earth.
