Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (velocity squared)
Divide each side
by (velocity squared/2): Mass in kg = ( 2 x energy in joules) / (velocity in m/s) squared
Kinetic energy is equal to one-half of the product of an object's mass and the square of its velocity. Velocity is change in displacement divided by time. If you have the kinetic energy and mass, you can calculate the velocity by taking the square root of the quotient of kinetic energy and mass, and thereby solving for the velocity.
The object has a mass of 2kg. When velocity is tripled the kinetic energy becomes 225 joules.
How do you calculate the mass of an object that has a potential energy of 180 joules and rest at the top of a hill 15 meters from the ground?
Not enough information. You can calculate force by Newton's Second Law, but in this case, there is no way to know how fast the velocity changes - or whether it changes at all.
To measure kinetic energy:Let us suppose an object of mass m moving wtih velocity vKinetic Energy of that object= mv2/2
Force equals the mass times the rate of change of the velocity.
Use the formula for Kinetic Energy (KE), which is the energy due to the motion of an object. KE = (1/2) * (mass) * (velocity)2 where KE is in joules, mass is in kg, and velocity (or speed) would be in meters/sec...Just substitute the appropriate numbers, rearrange and solve for velocity
That's not enough information. You need some additional information to calculate the mass.
Power is equal to Force times velocity; P=Fv. You are given the 'speed', which I assume to be velocity. You also have acceleration. In order to find F, you need first to find the mass, which you can calculate from the weight, Fg, by dividing by the acceleration due to gravity, 9.8. You then have the mass. From here, multiply mass times acceleration times the velocity.
To get the potential energy when only the mass and velocity time has been given, simply multiply mass and the velocity time given.

momentum = mass x velocity => mass = momentum / velocity
You cannot. Force = Mass*Acceleration or Mass*Rate of change of Velocity.
You can't. The mass is irrelevant to velocity. You need the distance.
Its kinetic energy (in joules) will be (31) times (its velocity in meters per second)2 .
