No. But since you asked. If you double the velocity the KE increases by 4x. Why? The formula says 1/2mv^2, so that means if the velocity increases the KE increase by that # squared. The real world implication is if you double your speed you have 4x the energy. If this were a car that means you would need 4 x the distance or 4x the force. Translation to follow...
I clicked the link but it said you needed to accept my request to see the document.
ReplyDeleteI will fix it now...
DeleteAlso do we have to finish the worksheet with all the amounts for kinetic energy for homework

ReplyDeleteHi I was wondering if we get our final review packet this weekend or next week?
