A small 18 kilogram canoe is floating downriver at a speed of 1 m/s. What is the canoe's kinetic energy?
1 answer:
Kinetic energy = (1/2) (mass) (speed²).
A Physicist in the canoe, or on a raft floating downriver next to the canoe, will say that the canoe's kinetic energy is zero.
A Physicist on the riverbank, watching the canoe drift by at 1 m/s, will say that its kinetic energy is 9 Joules.
They're both correct.
