Massic kinetic energy

Specific kinetic energy
Common symbols	ke, or ek
SI unit	J/kg, or m2/s2
Derivations from other quantities	ek = ½v2

Specific kinetic energy is kinetic energy of an object per unit of mass.

It is defined as ${\begin{matrix}e_{k}={\frac {1}{2}}\end{matrix}}v^{2}$.

Where $e_{k}$ is the specific kinetic energy and $v$ is velocity. It has units of J/kg, which is equivalent to m²/s².
