    Well, typically, the movement of any object is associated with kinetic energy.

    You should be able to determine from a quick Google search that kinetic means "of, relating to, or resulting from motion."

    Since kinetic energy

    K

    is associated with motion, it has something to do with momentum

    p

    . In fact, for an object with a constant mass:



    p

    =

    m



    v

    Δ

    K

    =





    v

    f



    v

    i



    p

    d



    v

    =













    m





    v

    v

    i

    =

    m



    v

    f

    -

    v

    ... the change in kinetic energy occurs in accordance with a change in the velocity over the course of an object's forward momentum.
