When we say a body is given kinetic energy $\frac{1}{2}mv^2$, what do we mean by this?
Is this energy transmitted to all the particles of the body uniformly? If not, Where is this energy stored?

Basically you're asking why we don't include the energy of the motion of the container when doing thermodynamic calculation? – tryst with freedom Dec 20 '20 at 14:56

3Does this answer your question? Why isn't temperature frame dependent? – tryst with freedom Dec 20 '20 at 14:58

@Buraian what about the first part of the question ? Where is the kinetic energy stored ? – Ankit Dec 20 '20 at 15:12

Perhaps you should edit your question to make it more focused empahsizing on where it's stored only. @Ankit – tryst with freedom Dec 20 '20 at 15:13

And I think that you should remove out the last part about the temperature thing because it is discussed in that stack post I commented and linked ones. Or if you don't think that those explanation was satisfactory, then you should pick out those point and put it in this question – tryst with freedom Dec 20 '20 at 15:15

@Ankit This is a good Q and even I used to have confusions in it. My recommendation is that you just check the derivation of P.E and K.E from F.S. You will get your answer. – S.M.T May 26 '21 at 09:28
