Impact Energy

on . Posted in Classical Mechanics

Impact energy is the energy absorbed or transferred during a collision or impact between two objects. 

 

Impact Energy Formula

\( m \;=\; \dfrac{ 2 \cdot E_i }{ v^2 } \)

Symbol English Metric
\( E_i \) = Impact Energy \(lbf-ft\) \(J\)
\( m \) = Mass \(lbm\) \(kg\)
\( v \) = Velocity \(ft\;/\;sec\) \(m\;/\;s\)
