'Kinetic' generally refers to anything which fires a solid projectile. Modern firearms are 'kinetic' weapons, although in FT you're more likely to find some sort of magnetic system (railguns, coilguns, etc.) It also seems that explosive projectile weapons (see WH40k's 'Bolters') get lumped into this category a lot for the sake of convenience.
The alternative is generally referred to as 'energy' or 'directed energy' weapons (DEW, for short.) Those are your lasers, particle beams, whatever.
There are also more exotic weapons out there. Gravity based, probability based, or something else that screws with the laws of physics.
