Vis viva, a Latin term meaning "living force," refers to the concept of kinetic energy in classical mechanics. It was introduced by the philosopher Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz in the 17th century. The concept of vis viva states that the amount of motion (or "living force") of an object is proportional to the product of its mass and the square of its velocity.
