Sorry, Bjarne, I have literally no idea what your response means.Please provide me with a link to online physics material that explains, in detail:
1) how the KE of something can be determined
2) how the thermal energy due to friction can be determined,…..
As written this is certain knowledge, you can find thousand of internet pages regarding these questions.
There is nothing on that page about the ISS, and the only references to "KE" are clearly for quite different objects.
The principles are the same.
Can you clarify please?
What "principles" are you referring to?
And they are "the same" as what (or in what sense)?
You have?!?!?!?I have shown you 2 equations, - calculate it yourself, such is good training to understand what all this is about.Here it is again: "What is the KE of the ISS, according to you (and your partner)?"
I must have missed them; what, specifically, are the "two equations"?
I don't understand this at all; can you clarify please?If let say the resistance (deceleration) can be calculated to 1e-10 m/s^2 – you can overcome that resistance by a opposite force/acceleration, same size , but “forward”. (acc) , and the result is zero.So, once more, what is the definition of "energy to overcome resistance against motion"?
For example, you seem to be equating "force" and "acceleration"; are you? If not, then what does "by a opposite force/acceleration" mean?
So, in simple, clear, unambiguous, objective terms, the "energy to overcome resistance against motion" is just a difference in KE, in a situation where something (what?) is decelerating?You can also calculate the KE lost per second, - first based on the starting speed (Mv^2/2) Now reduce the speed v – (minus) 1e-10 m/s (the first second) and calculate KE again (Mv^2/2). The difference between the 2 KE results is the KE lost per / the first second.
In the above, what is "M"?
And can you confirm that "v" is, indeed, "the speed"?
Sorry, no.And this is also the necessary KE requirement you need to prevent suck lost.
Pretty simple right?
You see, you've introduced a completely new term ("suck"), possibly two ("lost"). Neither term seems to have been defined.
But, on the bright side, I think there is some, modest, progress.
