Question 1198379: The kinetic energy K of a moving object varies directly with its mass m and the square of its velocity v. If an object weighing 25 lb and moving with a velocity of 150 ft/s (feet per second) has a kinetic energy of 600 J (foot-pound or joule), find its kinetic energy when its velocity is 100 ft/s. Answer by ikleyn(52776) (Show Source):
It is wrong statement that given moving body has kinetic energy of 600 J.
It is also wrong statement that foot-pound is the same as joule.
As it is worded, printed and presented in the post, this problem
is beyond a red line, separating educated people from their antipodes.
I know that your first desire will be to post your anathema to me in response.
But if you think next minute, you should get understanding that I save you
from a shame of releasing this gibberish to outside and from your wrong delusions,
and therefore, you should be thankful to me: .
Do not even try to perform your standard mantra, referring to your professor
or to your textbook, from which you (supposedly) copy-pasted it.
Gibberish is the gibberish independently of its source.
