9. Work & Energy

Intro to Energy & Kinetic Energy

Kinetic Energy: Example Problems


Both blocks will have the same final kinetic energy and the same final speed.



Block A will have a greater final kinetic energy and a greater final speed.



Block B will have a greater final kinetic energy and a greater final speed.



The blocks will have the same final kinetic energy, but block B will be moving faster.



The blocks will have the same final velocity, but block B will have greater kinetic energy.



The blocks will have the same final kinetic energy, but block A will be moving faster.


Block A has mass <math display="inline"><mrow><mn>20</mn><mo rspace="thickmathspace">&#x2062;</mo><mi mathvariant="normal" class="MathML-Unit">kg</mi></mrow></math> and block B has mass <math display="inline"><mrow><mn>50</mn><mo rspace="thickmathspace">&#x2062;</mo><mi mathvariant="normal" class="MathML-Unit">kg</mi></mrow></math>. Starting from rest, the two blocks are pushed by identical forces through a distance of <math display="inline"><mrow><mn>10</mn><mo rspace="thickmathspace">&#x2062;</mo><mi mathvariant="normal" class="MathML-Unit">m</mi></mrow></math>.

Work and Energy

What is the kinetic energy of a <math display="inline"><mrow><mn>500</mn><mo rspace="thickmathspace">&#x2062;</mo><mi mathvariant="normal" class="MathML-Unit">kg</mi></mrow></math> car traveling at <math display="inline"><mrow><mn>27</mn><mo rspace="thickmathspace">&#x2062;</mo><mrow><mi mathvariant="normal" class="MathML-Unit">m</mi><mo>/</mo><mi mathvariant="normal" class="MathML-Unit">s</mi></mrow></mrow></math> (about <math display="inline"><mrow><mn>60</mn><mo rspace="thickmathspace">&#x2062;</mo><mi mathvariant="normal" class="MathML-Unit">mph</mi></mrow></math>)?

About 50,000 years ago, a meteor crashed into the earth near present-day Flagstaff, Arizona. Some estimates suggest this meteor had a mass of about 1.4×108 kg and released 1×1016 J of energy when it slammed into the Earth. Calculate the approximate speed of this meteor before impact.


A particle with mass m and velocity v has kinetic energy K. What is the kinetic energy of a particle with mass m/2 and velocity 2v?


Intro to Energy & Types of Energy

Where does the kinetic energy formula come from?

(c) Is it reasonable that a 30-kg child could run fast enough to have 100 J of kinetic energy?
