  2. Kinetic energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_energy

    Kinetic energy is the movement energy of an object. Kinetic energy can be transferred between objects and transformed into other kinds of energy. [10] Kinetic energy may be best understood by examples that demonstrate how it is transformed to and from other forms of energy.

  3. Pendulum (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendulum_(mechanics)

    "Energy" derivation of Figure 2. Trigonometry of a simple gravity pendulum. It can also be obtained via the conservation of mechanical energy principle: any object falling a vertical distance h {\displaystyle h} would acquire kinetic energy equal to that which it lost to the fall.

  4. Lagrangian mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lagrangian_mechanics

    Kinetic energy T is the energy of the system's motion and is a function only of the velocities v k, not the positions r k, nor time t, so T = T(v 1, v 2, ...). V , the potential energy of the system, reflects the energy of interaction between the particles, i.e. how much energy any one particle has due to all the others, together with any ...

  5. Two-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-body_problem

    In the center of mass frame the kinetic energy is the lowest and the total energy becomes = ˙ + The coordinates x 1 and x 2 can be expressed as = = and in a similar way the energy E is related to the energies E 1 and E 2 that separately contain the kinetic energy of each body: = = ˙ + = = ˙ + = +

  6. Elastic collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_collision

    The final x and y velocities components of the first ball can be calculated as: [5] ′ = ⁡ () + ⁡ + ⁡ + ⁡ ⁡ (+) ′ = ⁡ () + ⁡ + ⁡ + ⁡ ⁡ (+), where v 1 and v 2 are the scalar sizes of the two original speeds of the objects, m 1 and m 2 are their masses, θ 1 and θ 2 are their movement angles, that is, = ⁡, = ⁡ (meaning ...

  7. Turbulence kinetic energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbulence_kinetic_energy

    Turbulence kinetic energy is then transferred down the turbulence energy cascade, and is dissipated by viscous forces at the Kolmogorov scale. This process of production, transport and dissipation can be expressed as: D k D t + ∇ ⋅ T ′ = P − ε , {\displaystyle {\frac {Dk}{Dt}}+\nabla \cdot T'=P-\varepsilon ,} where: [ 1 ]

  8. Kinetic theory of gases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_theory_of_gases

    Thus, the ratio of the kinetic energy to the absolute temperature of an ideal monatomic gas can be calculated easily: per mole: 12.47 J/K; per molecule: 20.7 yJ/K = 129 μeV/K; At standard temperature (273.15 K), the kinetic energy can also be obtained: per mole: 3406 J; per molecule: 5.65 zJ = 35.2 meV.

  9. Langevin equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Langevin_equation

    The original Langevin equation [1] [2] describes Brownian motion, the apparently random movement of a particle in a fluid due to collisions with the molecules of the fluid, = + (). Here, v {\displaystyle \mathbf {v} } is the velocity of the particle, λ {\displaystyle \lambda } is its damping coefficient, and m {\displaystyle m} is its mass.
