### Step-by-Step Solution: #### (a) What is kinetic energy? Derive an expression for it in case of a body of mass `m` moving with velocity `v`. 1. **Definition of Kinetic Energy**: Kinetic energy (KE) is the energy possessed by an object due to its motion. The faster an object moves, the more kinetic energy it has. 2. **Work-Energy Principle**: According to the work-energy principle, the work done on an object is equal to the change in its kinetic energy. ...
