Calculation of kinetic energy of a point object of mass m and velocity v in classical mechanics.
Kinetic energy of a point object in classical mechanics
Calculation of kinetic energy of a material point of mass m and velocity v in relativistic mechanics.
Here the velocity of the material point cannot exceed the speed of light (299792458 m/sec.)
Kinetic energy of a point object in relativistic mechanics
At low speeds, the results of both formulas coincide, but the closer to the speed of light, the greater the difference.
