kinetic

In physics, the kinetic energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion.
It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity. Having gained this energy during its acceleration, the body maintains this kinetic energy unless its speed changes. The same amount of work is done by the body when decelerating from its current speed to a state of rest. Formally, a kinetic energy is any term in a system's Lagrangian which includes a derivative with respect to time. In classical mechanics, the kinetic energy of a non-rotating object of mass m traveling at a speed v is

{\textstyle {\frac {1}{2}}mv^{2}}
. In relativistic mechanics, this is a good approximation only when v is much less than the speed of light.
The standard unit of kinetic energy is the joule, while the English unit of kinetic energy is the foot-pound.

    URGENT Kinetic essential water softner

    Hello, I have a problem with my water softner kinetic essential: after every regeneration completed the first water coming out of the softner is salty for the first 1-2 litres and then ok. This is causing me a lot of problem. Can someone give an advice? Many thanks. Riccardo

    Kinetic water ram

    Can't recommened this enough really good for most blockages you don't have to undo traps just be careful not to put to much psi down it otherwise you can blow off fittings. does anyone else use this?
