No, force and energy are not the same dimension to start with. Gravitational force on an object is equal to mass*(gravitational acceleration) {dimensions Mass*Length/Time²}
Kinetic energy is (1/2)*mass*(velocity)² {dimensions Mass*Length²/Time²}. If you look at these, Force, multiplied by length has the same dimension as Energy. And in fact you have other forms of energy:
- Work is Force times distance;
- Potential energy = mass*(gravitational accel)*height = (Force due to gravity)*(height), height is a distance or length.

Show that derivative of kinetic energy is equal to force times velocity?
dKE/dt = P= F.v Where KE is Kinetic Energy and P is Power.
Does mind have kinetic energy?
No, the mind does not possess kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is energy that is created by a force or motion.
What is the proper name for energies in action?
action force
Is kinetic energy a force or motion or energy?
Kinetic energy is energy of motion. The kinetic energy of an object is the energy it posses because of its motion.
A net force acts on a particle this net force is not equal to zero is this sufficient information to conclude that the kinetic energy of the particle changes?
Yes. If the net force is not zero, the particle accelerates. Accelerate means the velocity changes,if the velocity changes the kinetic energy of the particle changes.
What kind of energy is wind?
Wind energy is kinetic energy, it is created by the force of air in motion.
What is kinetic energy loss?
The braking force x stopping distance (assuming constant braking force) is equal to the loss of kinetic energy of the vehicle.And if it's not constant, you can integrate the dot product of the force vector and the differential x-vector.If you want the power of heat generation, you will need to find how much energy is being dissipated (i.e. how much kinetic energy is lost) per unit of time.
When does potential energy equal kinetic energy?
well kinetic energy is when some thing is moving and potential energy is the highest point so think of it this way a boy siting in his chair sitting still and a girl standing up jog in place the girl has potential and kinetic
When you push against a wall with your fingers they bend because they experience a force Identify this force?
you push on the wall and the wall pushes back on you with opposite and equal force.
When a puck falls it potential energy increase or decrease?
Kinetic energy
How does energy move and how?
it moves through force by kinetic energy
Can potential energy only be converted to kinetic energy?
by force
