The kinetic energy K of an object of mass m moving with speed v is given by the formula K = mv2. The SI unit of kinetic energy is the joule, J. Use this formula to express the joule in terms of the fundamental SI quantities of mass, length, and time.
If the speed of a vehicle increases by 22%, by what factor does its kinetic energy increase? Kinetic formula is KE=1/2 mu^2. Thus, the amount of kinetic energy in a moving object is the product of the mass(m) of the object and the square of its speed(u)
Write down an expression for the velocity of a satellite of mass m in a circular orbit of radius R
around the Earth. Take the mass of the Earth as M and use G for the gravitational
constant. Please use appropriate algebraic symbols for multiplication (* for a × b), division (/
for a/b), exponents (a^b for a³), square root (sqrt(a*b/c) for √a × b/c) etc.
