Hi, my name is Aprameya i had a doubt we know K.E.(Kinetic Energy) = (1/2)mv^2 the v over here is velocity but at what time. Velocity will be different at differnt points of time i mean at 1second it might be something and and at another second it might be something else. so while calculating which velocity do we use

Consider an example,
An object of mass 5 kg is at rest starts and then start moving with a velocity of 2 m/s and reaches point B from A. 
 
A(u=0).................................B (v = 2m/s)
 
So here in this exampe if you are asked to find the kinetic energy at point A then, 
K.E.A = 1/2 ×mu2  
Here, 
u - initial velocity 
u =0 at point A
Thus 
K.E at point A will be zero. 
Now if you want to find kinetic energy at point B, 
K.E. = 1/2 mv2 
v = 2m/s at point B 
Thus, 
K.EB = 1/2 × 5 × 22 
Thus, 
K.E.B = 10 Joule 
Now conisder another example if an object starts moving from point B and reaches point C and at point C the velocity is 4 m/s 
Then the K.E. = 1/2 (5)(4)2 = 40 J
Also the change in the kinetic energy can be calculated using formula, 
K.E. = 1/2 m (v2 - u2)
So in case of motion from B to C the change in kinetic energy is, 
K.E. = K.E.f - K.E.i 
K.E. = 1/2 (5) (42 - 22 ) = 30 J. 
Hope this help you to understand.
