Answer:
1/√2
Explanation:
Kinetic energy of a body is expressed as
KE = 1/2mv²
If it's KE is doubled
2KE = 1/2mv1² where v1 is the new speed when the kinetic energy is doubled
To know the value of the amount the velocity has changed, we will divide both equations
2KE/KE = (1/2mv²)/(1/2mv1²)
2 = v²/v1²
(v/v1)² = 2
v/v1 = √2
v1 = v/√2
v1 = 1/√2 × v
The new velocity has changed by
1/√2vinitial
I believe it's technically referred to as the Normal force.
However I like to think of it as the reaction force, as it is the force that is a result of obeying Newton's 3rd law ("<span>For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction"). The upward force from the ground is the reaction to the downward force of gravity.</span>
