In order for an object to have kinetic energy it must have a mass and a?

Velocity

Explanation:

The mechanical energy of the body is defined as the sum of the potential energy and kinetic energy.

E = P. E + K. E

The potential energy of a body is due to the height from the surface of the earth.

P. E = mgh

The kinetic energy of the is possessed by the body due to the virtue of its motion,

K. E = ½ mv²

If there is no velocity associated with the body, there is no K. E in the body.
