Ofcourse, actually, you have to have mass in order to calculate kinetic energy.

Kinetic Energy = 0.5*m*v^2

Where m is the mass.

Where v is the velocity.

Mass is directly proportional to the kinetic energy, the more the mass, the more the kinetic energy.

How does kinetic energy relate to kinetic energy?

There is a one to one relationship.


How are potential kinetic energy and total energy relate to one another?

Potential energy + kinetic energy = total energy. Potential energy is stored or positional energy; chemical energy stored in a battery, a large weight up high where we can get gravity to do work with it. Kinetic energy is energy of motion; energy = 1/2mv^2.


How does the average kinetic energy of a gas relate to its temperture?

The kinetic energy of a gas is the speed of motion of the gas molecules. The higher the speed of the molecules, the higher the kinetic energy and the higher the temperature.

kinetic energy


What are the two main types of energy that relate to motion?

Potential and Kinetic


How do Physics and a pogo stick relate?

A pogo sticks spring is compressed due to the persons weight. Potential energy is high while the kinetic energy is low at this point. when that spring then relaxes the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy due to the acceleration of the pogo stick going up in the air.


How does Kinetic and Potential energy relate to Pendulums in different ways?

Maximum kinetic energy occurs at the bottom of the swing. Maximum potential energy occurs at the top of the swing.


When Bruce lets go of the weight what happens to its energy?

When an object falls down, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.


Is dance a kinetic energy?

the movement in dance is kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is =1/2(mass)(velocity)^2.if this is a homework question,it might also relate to impulses (see link).http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impulse


How does mass and speed relate to kinetic power?

Kinetic energy (not power) is given by 1/2 x Mass x Velocity2


What is the relationship between weight and kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends on the mass of the object and the speed of the object. The equation is: K= (1/2)mv^2, where K=kinetic energy, m=mass, and v=speed of the object.


Is lifting weight kinetic or potential energy?

potential because it is storing its energy
