If the same model plane travel 3 times faster than the same model airplane what is the kinetic energy of the faster plane?

The kinetic energy of an object varies as the square of its velocity (Kinetic energy = mv2/2). So a plane with the same mass travelling at 3 times the velocity will have 9 times the kinetic energy.

Why does an ocean liner traveling at 100km per hour would have more kinetic energy than a yacht traveling at the same velocity.?
The difference is the mass of the moving object: ocean liner some 10.000 to: yacht some 10 to Theory: W kin = kinetic energy m = mass v = velocity W kin = 1/2 * m * v² So the yacht would have to travel approx. 316 times faster than the ocean liner (when at 10 knots per hour) to have the same kinetic energy.
Could a bullet travel over a mile and still kill?
It depends on the bullet and its kinetic energy, 50 caliber certainly can.
At full speed an airplane can travel 3500 miles with the wind in 5 hours but it requires 7 hours to travel the same distance against the wind?

How far can an airplane travel in 5 hours if it is traveling at a constant velocity of?
It will fly exactly .
What arrow represents air resistance on an airplane?
The arrow opposite the direction of travel is the air resistance or drag.
How did airplane change transport produce?
the airplane helps you travel faster
Is there anything that can travel faster than the speed of light?
Nothing has been found that can.However there is a theoretical prediction of particles that can ONLY travel faster than light (at 0 energy they travel infinitely fast and it takes the addition of kinetic energy to slow them down), they are called "tachyons".
How can energy be kinetic?
If you fired a bullet vertically upward, it would have kinetic energy at first, when it gets to the top of its travel this would all have been converted to potential energy.
Why do people travel on airplane?
To get to distant places faster than you would by car or train.
What are two kinds of energy that travels in waves?
Kinetic and electromagnetic energy can travel in waves.
What is a wave that only can travel through matter?
A wave of kinetic energy requires a medium to travel though.
What are the energy changes that take place in a hydroelectric power station?
gravitational potential energy in the reservoir to kinetic energy in the water (when it's travel through the pipes) to kinetic energy in the turbine to electrical energy in the generator
Why does sound travel faster in solid than in liquids and gases?
Sound speed depends on the vibration of the particles, the velocity in which the kinetic energy moves between the particles. Solids have particles that are very close to each other, so the transfer of kinetic energy will occur rapidly. In liquids and gases , however, the particles are far apart, so the transfer of kinetic energy from one particle to another will take time.

How do you convert potential energy into kinetic?
If you fired a bullet vertically upward, it would have kinetic energy at first, when it gets to the top of its travel this would all have been converted to potential energy.
What are some of the benefits of high speed travel via car train or airplane?
You get to your destination faster.
When you stop at the top after climbing stairs have you gained kinetic energy?
You would not have gained kinetic energy if you were stopped because kinetic energy is energy of motion. However, there is always more than one way to look at a problem...If you climb to the top step you will be further (slightly) from the center of the earth. Being further away you will travel faster than you would nearer to the center because the earth rotates about its axis. You will travel a longer path during the same period of rotation. This presumes the steps that you are climbing are not located at either the north or south pole.You can look at the answer from a physiological perspective, too. If you just finished climbing the stairs, your heart will be pumping blood faster so, while not all of you is moving faster, at least part of you is.
