Physics news on Phys.org
No, because you have not specified the mass. (Don't pass on the headache to us.:smile:)
 
Hi all i have to go on is a train doing Normal speed for the X2000 is 200 km/h (120 mph),
 
For a mass m moving at speed v, KE = (1/2)mv^2 (in consistent units.)
 
Thankyou so much mate. I might be home and dry for your help.
