No. Falling objects accrue energy in direct proportion to HOW FAR THEY FALL under the influence of gravity. After the first second, an object has fallen about 16 feet. After the second second, an object has fallen about 64 feet. After the third second, an object has fallen...guess what??? 1) Each foot that an object falls represents the same amount of energy accrued. Each foot that one lifts an object represents the same amount of energy expended in lifting. 2) The DISTANCE an object falls is proportional to the square of the time that it has spent falling. 3) The SPEED of a falling object is directly proportional to the time that it has spent falling. Do you have any problem with statements (1), (2), or (3)? Together, they explain why there is a square in the kinetic energy equation. Jerry

No sir. The input energy is the PRODUCT of the force of gravity and the distance the force acts through. This is a simple fact, verified by experiment. And as an object falls, though the force is uniform, the distance per second increases each second, and so the product is not uniform though the force is uniform. I've explained this to you a half-dozen times, and you still don't seem to understand this. Do you have a reading comprehension problem? > To have the "output" KE be the square of the time, > immediately, violates the LAW OF THE CONSERVATION OF ENERGY: energy IN > must = energy OUT! NoEinstein Sorry, no, the INPUT energy is also increasing as the square of time, as I've explained several times. Energy is conserved.
