Work From Velocity Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Work From Velocity.
W = 1/2*m*dV^2
- Where W is the Work From Velocity (J)
- m is the mass (kg)
- dV is the change in velocity/speed (m/s)
How to Calculate Work From Velocity?
The following two example problems outline how to calculate the Work From Velocity.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the mass (kg). In this example, the mass (kg) is given as 81.
- Next, determine the change in velocity/speed (m/s). For this problem, the change in velocity/speed (m/s) is given as 58.
- Finally, calculate the Work From Velocity using the equation above:
W = 1/2*m*dV^2
Inserting the values from above and solving the equation with the imputed values gives:
W = 1/2*81*58^2= 136,242 (J)
Example Problem #2:
Using the same process as above, first define the variables required by the formula. In this case, these values are:
mass (kg) = 94
change in velocity/speed (m/s) = 10
Entering these values yields:
W = 1/2*m*dV^2 = 4700 (J)
