Work and Kinetic Energy

Kinetic Energy, Momentum, and Reference Frames

Description

Kinetic energy depends on mass, speed, momentum, and the frame of reference. For a particle, it is one-half of the particle’s mass times the square of its speed. The same idea can also be written in terms of mass and momentum instead of mass and velocity.

The units of kinetic energy are mass time...

物体的动能定义为质量与速度平方乘积的一半,其单位为千克·米²/秒²。

物体的动能可通过动量方程计算。方程中的速度项可由动量表达式代入替换,从而得到动量、质量与物体动能之间的关系。

物体的动能取决于对其进行测量的参考系。

例如,考虑一个坐在以恒定速度行驶的汽车中的人。由于此人相对于同车另一个静止的人是静止的,因此他相对于该人的动能为零。然而,对于站在车外的观察者而言,他的动能则不为零。
