Kinetic energy is the energy possessed by the body when in motion. It is calculated by 1/2mv² where m is the mass of the body and v is the velocity.
Baring in mind that energy can not be created or destroyed but can only be transformed from one form to another (law of conservation of energy) then when two bodies collide the total kinetic energy of the two particles stays the same (kinetic energy is preserved). This is in the case of perfectly elastic collision, however, during inelastic collisions the kinetic energy is transformed to other forms of energy such as heat, sound and energy used in bond breakage.

<h3>What is a wave?</h3>

A wave is a disturbance that moves energy from one place to another.

Radio waves, gamma-rays, visible light, and all the other parts of the electromagnetic spectrum are electromagnetic radiation. Electromagnetic radiation can be described in terms of a stream of mass-less particles, called photons, each travelling in a wave-like pattern at the speed of light. Hence, the statement is true.

As the disturbance moves outwards the energy it carries is spread over a larger and larger region called the wavefront. For example, the ripples in the water lie in a circle with an ever-increasing circumference. The amplitude of the ripples decreases as the circumference of the circle increases.
