    The energy possesed by virtue of motion of the body is called its kinetic energy. The formula for the kinetic energy is given by

    K. E. = 1/2 mv²

    Here, m is the mass of the body and v be the velocity of the body.

    As the velocity of the body depends on the frame of reference so the kinetic energy also depends on the frame of reference.
