  2. 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.

  3. Pendulum (mechanics) - Wikipedia

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

    The kinetic energy of the system is: = (˙ + ˙) where is the mass of the bobs, is the length of the strings, and , are the angular displacements of the two bobs from equilibrium. The potential energy of the system is: E p = m g L ( 2 − cos ⁡ θ 1 − cos ⁡ θ 2 ) + 1 2 k L 2 ( θ 2 − θ 1 ) 2 {\displaystyle E_{\text{p}}=mgL(2-\cos ...

  4. Mechanical energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_energy

    The pendulum reaches greatest kinetic energy and least potential energy when in the vertical position, because it will have the greatest speed and be nearest the Earth at this point. On the other hand, it will have its least kinetic energy and greatest potential energy at the extreme positions of its swing, because it has zero speed and is ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in...

    Classical mechanics is the branch of physics used to describe the motion of macroscopic objects. [1] It is the most familiar of the theories of physics. The concepts it covers, such as mass, acceleration, and force, are commonly used and known. [2]

  6. 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.

  7. Pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendulum

    The Q is equal to 2π times the energy stored in the pendulum, divided by the energy lost to friction during each oscillation period, which is the same as the energy added by the escapement each period. It can be seen that the smaller the fraction of the pendulum's energy that is lost to friction, the less energy needs to be added, the less the ...

  8. Kapitza's pendulum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kapitza's_pendulum

    The potential energy of the pendulum is due to gravity and is defined by, in terms of the vertical position, as = (⁡ + ⁡). The kinetic energy in addition to the standard term = ˙ /, describing velocity of a mathematical pendulum, there is a contribution due to vibrations of the suspension

  9. Ideal gas law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_gas_law

    Hence, all the energy possessed by the gas is the kinetic energy of the molecules, or atoms, of the gas. = This corresponds to the kinetic energy of n moles of a monoatomic gas having 3 degrees of freedom; x, y, z. The table here below gives this relationship for different amounts of a monoatomic gas.
