Homework Equations
How fast would a 70-kg person have to run to have the same amount of kinetic energy?
The Attempt at a Solution
1 watt = 1 J/S so... 100 J/S * 3600s = 360,000 J
360,000 kg m^2/s^2 ÷ 70 = 5142.86 m^2/s^2
my only question would be do you just square root the value and would it remove both ^2?
