Not really. This is what dimensional analysis is all about. This is covered in chapter 1 of chemistry and physics high school textbooks, and is also covered pretty extensively in 7th grade science books. > Suppose that > the cost of an item on sale goes up in direct proportion to wealth of > the buyer.

"Sure, the units are there, but we'll just hide them so the customer doesn't know he's being cheated. Hiding them is ok because scientifically they're not needed. Wink, wink." > The problem with 'just' equations is that people loose > track of what it is that is being measured.

Yes, indeed. That's why the momentum is proportional to the velocity and has it in its units. Because 200 never equals 300. > Effectively, > momentum is just an increase in hitting power (pounds) caused by > velocity. No. Power, force, momentum are all DIFFERENT things, John, except in the sports pages. > > My Wiley Engineering Desk Reference indicates that Work (W) = Fs > foot-pounds. Then, it indicates that Kinetic Energy (W) = ½ mv^2. > Setting the two Ws equal yields: Fs foot-pounds = ½ mv^2. And if you'll check the units, you'll find that's correct. Notice that mass and force do not share the same units. I know you're not used to this, but check carefully your engineering reference for the units of mass. > But that > equation VIOLATES the Law of the Conservation of Energy!

No, there is no work done on it because you're not applying any push to it, if it is going at constant speed. It has nothing to do with resistance. It has to do with the force applied. Please read the definition of work. > The only resistance offered by a falling object is that > object's INERTIA, which remains constant throughout the fall. The force applied is gravity. And that is constant in free-fall, correct. I said that already. Please read what I wrote. > Most of > the... distance of all is COASTING due to the velocity carry-over from > precious seconds. That doesn't matter. The work is the force applied times the distance traversed. NOWHERE in the definition of work does it say to subtract out the distance it would have gone if coasting. Please pay attention to the definition of work in your 7th grade science book. > The rate of change of the velocity in all near- > Earth falling objects is uniform or LINEAR.

Kinetic energy, momentum, force, mass, are all DIFFERENT animals. That's why they have different names, John.
