Talk:Kinetic energy

message: @JoeNMLC
I have reverted a change to add template Further information: Self-powered dynamic systems to the section "Kinetic energy of systems".  The section is about internal kinetic energy of eg the Solar System. The referenced article is about systems that use energy harvesting internally. While there might be some overlap, the referenced article is not "further information" about the concept of kinetic energy.
If the kinetic energy article had an Applications section, the reference article might be linked there. (this would have to be a general purpose section with more than just the single application). Johnjbarton (talk) 02:26, 8 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: @Johnjbarton - Thankyou for explaining the revert. I'm totally okay with that. While I did have two semesters Physics, it was so many years ago, I am out of my element on this topic. Regards, JoeNMLC (talk) 03:12, 8 July 2023 (UTC)

thread_title:  Newtonian kinetic energy? 

message: (Follow up from a previous topic)
One aspect of the current article concerns me: possession of kinetic energy. As I heard it put one time: energy is not a magical fluid added and removed from objects. Rather it is a relative property, useful only by comparison. Objects have different amounts of kinetic energy depending on the reference frame. We humans assign kinetic energy to objects based on our analysis of the object's velocity relative to our chosen reference frame.
In one sense this is obvious: velocity is relative. Object's don't possess velocity, thus they cannot possess kinetic energy. The difficult part is presenting this naturally and clearly for an introductory audience and with sufficient reliable references. 
I think such changes are important for this kind of article as noted in  WP:OVERSIMPLIFY.
My proposal is to first develop a short section explaining 1) why kinetic energy is not an object property and 2) why assigning kinetic energy to objects is so darn useful. 
And second to make small changes to the article to reduce the dependence on the possession model. For example, rather than
* the kinetic energy of an object is the form of energy that it possesses due to its motion 
we might say
* the kinetic energy of an object is the form of energy associated with its motion.
I will look for appropriate references first. Johnjbarton (talk) 01:04, 9 September 2023 (UTC)

POV is truly a heavy issue here - every country views (and names) these wars differently. Probably the only common theme is that the history of Sweden for almost 2 centuries is a history of virtually continuous war - if I their naming wasn't so heavily POV, I'd suggest using it to limit ambiguity.

message: I am moving the following comment here, which was placed by Lukeprentice (sorry, not anonymous as I said in my memo on the article page) in the wrong place (under the reference section of the main article), and which I think belongs here. (A R King)
:The origin of sheng cannot be said to be Nairobi. Sheng vocabulary originates from the major towns in Kenya, notably Nakuru, Kisumu, Mombasa and Eldoret. Nairobi can only be said to be a major contributor to Sheng as it is the biggest city in Kenya and can be said to be the meeting point of all Kenyan tribes and cultures. It can also be said that Nairobi's Sheng spreads faster than Sheng from any other Kenyan town. The crusaders of Nairobi's Sheng are mostly Primary, High School and University students. Most of these students study upcountry hence the Sheng they speak is adapted by residents there and accepted as a standard dialect so to speak.

*1) Sheng vocabulary is different in different places, so these changes may delete words that are correct Sheng words in certain locations.
*2) Correcting vocabulary is against the general ethos of Sheng; Sheng is not rigidly standardized but is a very fluid way of speech, constantly changing.

thread_title: cysteine

message: I've just made an edit, dropping the term "molecular entity" from the lede - "chemical species" is more familiar .. and hopefully, in the context, sufficiently equivalent!
Later in the article the term "species" is used - with, in the context, the same meaning; and the change of terminology is distracting.  (At best it requires a mental adjustment by the reader; at worst it draws the reader to click into IUPAC terminology swamps.)
The alternative was to level the terminology the other way (ie using "molecular entity" throughout rather than using "chemical species").  I'm not sure there's much to choose in terms of theoretical accuracy / precision.  The Gold Book uses "molecular entity", but "chemical species" is more readily abbreviated (for fluency; to "species"), in the running copy, and "molecular entity" is so rarely used that in a lede it functions as a minor distraction in itself.

message: As is, the current "variants" section is populated entirely by a table with lineart images and a few laconic, uncited notes.

Furthermore, the table does not provide for all the variants of the Ratel, namely production marks, which are separate from variants otherwise distinguished by their armament. 
I'm going to propose this article scrap the table and the lineart and replace it with a variants section similar to that found on EE-11 Urutu. This variants section should also be condensed with the skeletal "derivative" section immediately below it, which consists almost solely of a iKlwa lineart image at this point. --Katangais (talk) 04:25, 18 March 2018 (UTC)
