How about a tectonic plate. 40E21 kg at 1.6E-9 m/s gives a KE of about 50 kJ, which is only enough energy to power a typical incandescent light bulb for about 20 minutes.PrakashPrasad said:Can anyone please let me know an example where a body has large mass but low Kinetic Energy?

Or how about any massive object in the rest frame of that object?Dale said:How about a tectonic plate.
