- .5mv^2=KE, W = (change in x)F
I sent the work divided by two equal to the velocity part of the problem then got stuck.
Please post your attempt, per forum rules.bob1352 said:Homework Statement:: Homework relating to work and velocity to

Do you honestly think I went through the effort of creating an account and making a post without attempting the problem first? In the post I even said that I set the work divided 2 = to velocity part and got stuck. And somehow I got a strike on my account for getting stuck. My disappointment with this forum is immeasurable and my day in ruined. All I asked for was help, not answers, and I was left to rot like a corpse in the rain.haruspex said:Please post your attempt, per forum rules.
I am not able to help you if you do not post what you actually did. The outline in post #1 is much too vague. Did you really set velocity = work/2? I hope not. Did you get an answer of any sort as a result of what you did?bob1352 said:Do you honestly think I went through the effort of creating an account and making a post without attempting the problem first?

You really have to provide us with more details of what exactly you did. We don't have telepathy , we are not inside your brain to know what you thought for this problem and what exactly you did.bob1352 said:Do you honestly think I went through the effort of creating an account and making a post without attempting the problem first?

The velocity of an object can be calculated by dividing the displacement (change in position) by the time it took for the object to travel that distance. The formula for velocity is V = d/t, where V is velocity, d is displacement, and t is time.
If you are stuck on a problem involving velocity, it is important to first identify what information you have and what you are trying to solve for. Then, use the appropriate formula and plug in the given values to solve for the unknown variable. If you are still having trouble, try breaking the problem down into smaller, simpler steps.
Velocity and speed are often used interchangeably, but they are actually different concepts. Speed is the rate at which an object is moving, while velocity includes both the speed and direction of an object's motion. In other words, velocity is a vector quantity while speed is a scalar quantity.
Velocity can be expressed in a variety of units, such as meters per second (m/s), kilometers per hour (km/h), or miles per hour (mph). It is important to pay attention to the units given in a problem and make sure to use the appropriate unit in your calculation.
Solving problems with velocity is important in many fields, such as physics, engineering, and even everyday life. It can be used to calculate the speed of a moving vehicle, the force needed to launch a rocket, or the trajectory of a projectile. It is also used in sports to analyze the performance of athletes and in transportation to optimize travel routes.
