Which one do you need?
- Work Done by a Force Calculator
- Calculate mechanical work in joules from force, distance and the angle between them, or from lifting a mass or sliding it against dry friction.
- Kinetic Energy Calculator
- Calculate kinetic energy from mass and speed in joules and foot-pounds, or back-solve the speed or mass, with an equivalent fall height for comparison.
- Gravitational Potential Energy Calculator
- Calculate gravitational potential energy from mass, height and local gravity, or solve for the height or mass that stores a target amount of energy.
- Linear Momentum Calculator
- Calculate linear momentum from mass and velocity, the change in momentum between two speeds, and the average force that momentum change implies.
