  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. Kinetic art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_art

    Naum Gabo, one of the two artists attributed to naming this style, wrote frequently about his work as examples of "kinetic rhythm". [5] He felt that his moving sculpture Kinetic Construction (also dubbed Standing Wave, 1919-1920) [6] was the first of its kind in the 20th century. From the 1920s until the 1960s, the style of kinetic art was ...

  4. Bernoulli's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernoulli's_principle

    The energy entering through A 1 is the sum of the kinetic energy entering, the energy entering in the form of potential gravitational energy of the fluid, the fluid thermodynamic internal energy per unit of mass (ε 1) entering, and the energy entering in the form of mechanical p dV work: = (+ + +) where Ψ = gz is a force potential due to the ...

  5. Mechanical energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mechanical_energy

    Energy is a scalar quantity, and the mechanical energy of a system is the sum of the potential energy (which is measured by the position of the parts of the system) and the kinetic energy (which is also called the energy of motion): [1] [2] = +

  6. Elastic collision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_collision

    On average, two atoms rebound from each other with the same kinetic energy as before a collision. Five atoms are colored red so their paths of motion are easier to see. In physics, an elastic collision is an encounter between two bodies in which the total kinetic energy of the two bodies remains the same.

  7. 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 ...

  8. Elastic energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elastic_energy

    Elastic energy of or within a substance is static energy of configuration. It corresponds to energy stored principally by changing the interatomic distances between nuclei. Thermal energy is the randomized distribution of kinetic energy within the material, resulting in statistical fluctuations of the material about the equilibrium ...

  9. Newton's cradle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_cradle

    The kinetic energy, proportionate to the velocity squared, is converted to potential energy as the 2nd mass rises to the same height as the initial ball, then it falls and the cycle repeats in the other direction. An idealized Newton's cradle with five balls when there are no energy losses and there is always a small separation between the ...
