v = √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ;
Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"] ;
and solve for "v".

Explanation:
_____________________________________________________
The formula is: KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ;
_____________________________________
"Kinetic energy" = (½) * (mass) * (velocity , "squared")
________________________________________________
Note: Velocity is similar to speed, in that velocity means "speed and direction"; however, if you "square" a negative number, you will get a "positive"; since: a "negative" multiplied by a "negative" equals a "positive".
____________________________________________
So, we have the formula:
___________________________________
KE = (½) * (m) * (v²) ; to solve for "(v)" ; velocity, which is very similar to the "speed";
___________________________________________________
we arrange the formula ;
__________________________________________________
(KE) = (½) * (m) * (v²) ; ↔ (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE) ;
___________________________________________________
→ We have: (½)*(m)* (v²) = (KE) ; we isolate, "m" (mass) on one side of the equation:
______________________________________________________
→ We divide each side of the equation by: "[(½)* (m)]" ;
___________________________________________________
→ [ (½)*(m)*(v²) ] / [(½)* (m)] = (KE) / [(½)* (m)]<span> ;
</span>______________________________________________________
to get:
______________________________________________________
→ v² = (KE) / [(½)* (m)]
→ v² = 2 KE / m
_______________________________________________________
Take the "square root" of each side of the equation ;
_______________________________________________________
→ √ (v²) = √ { 2*(KE) ] / m }
________________________________________________________
→ v = √ { 2*(KE) ] / m } ;
Now, plug in the known values for "KE" ["kinetic energy"] and "m" ["mass"];
and solve for "v".

False, because the ions of the solar wind collide with atoms of oxygen and nitrogen from the Earth's atmosphere. The energy released during these collisions causes an aurora.
hope this helps!
It reaches 10 or 20 million degrees kelvin but it can get as high as 10 million degrees kelvin
Yes, with simple machines
