This is a theoretical question that I have, it might be somewhat elementary, or I might be missing something. Basically, we have two formulas:
1) We know that
P = F/A
By multiplying by d/d, we get:
P = Work/Volume
P = Energy/Volume
P = 1/2 mv2 / V
Therefore
F/A = 1/2 mv2 / V
And therefore, the force is equal to the velocity squared.
2) However, according to F*t = mv
We say that Force is directly proportional to velocity.
Do you see the contradiction?
Please Help
Note: I'm basically comparing the relationship of force with respect to velocity
