Work is force X distance travelled. Force is mass x acceleration. Aceeleration depends on the frame of reference from which one is measuring it. Hence work done depend on the frame of reference from which one is measuring it. QED

Can kinetic energy be measured in newtons?
No, kinetic energy is measured in Joules (J), as this is the SI unit for energy.
Kinetic Energy Si Unit?
In the SI, any type of energy is measured in joules.
Is a rock potential or kinetic energy?
It has potential energy but when it is in movement it will possess kinetic energy
What is the measurement of the average kinetic energy of the molecules of a substance?
temperature is the average kinetic energy of a particle
The amount of energy an object contains and how fast the particles of matter move is?
Kinetic energy = 1/2mv2, where kinetic energy is measured in Joules, mass in grams, and velocity in m/s.
Is standing kinetic or potential energy?
It is not kinetic energy. Whether or not it is potential energy depends on the frame of reference.
Can kinetic energy be measured in newtons?
No, kinetic energy is measured in Joules (J), as this is the SI unit for energy.
What is the similarities between kinetic energy and potential energy?
kinetic energy depends on speed an potential energy depends on height and mass
How would you calculate an objects mechanical energy?
Find out the form of Mechanical energy in he object. Kinetic energy is measured with velocity Vibration energy measured by amplitude and frequency of vibration. Datum energy is measured by height of the object from ground. Hence it depends on the type of the energy.
What is considered when measuring kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy cannot be measured directly, but the kinetic energy is just 1/2 times the mass times the velocity squared, and velocity can be measured directly.
An object that has NO kinetic energy must be?
An object with zero kinetic energy is at rest. However, since reference frames are relative, the calculation of kinetic energy is done with reference to an arbitrary point.
What units are kinetic energy measured in?
To measure kinetic energy:Let us suppose an object of mass m moving wtih velocity vKinetic Energy of that object= mv2/2
What is the energy of a moving object due to its motion?
Energy related to motion is called "kinetic energy".
What is the measure of average kinetic energy?
The average kinetic energy of atomic and molecular particles is measured as temperature.
What is kinetic energy measured with?
Kinetic energy is calculated using mass and velocity. KE=1/2mv2
What is the average kinetic energy of particles in an object can be measured by its?
By its Thermal Energy.
What is kinetic energy how is it measured?
I don't know how it is measured but i do know that it is basically movement energy. So if you waved your arm in the air right now, you have 'created' kinetic energy. hope this helps!
