Q: Kinetic energy is the amount of energy in the form of motion. Like any unit of energy, it can be express in units of Joules. Kinetic energy is equivalent to the amount of work done to accelerate a stationary object to a certain speed. Once it has reached that speed, the object retains that amount of kinetic energy until that energy transforms into heat (from friction), gravitational potential energy (from moving against gravity), or other types of energy. For example, we can measure the kinetic energy of a bicycle & bicyclist. Let's say the cyclist has a mass of 50 kg, and the cycle has a mass of 20 kg, for a total mass m of 70 kg. We can now treat them as one 70 kg object, since they'll be traveling together at the same speed. . If you already know the bicyclist's speed or velocity, just write it down and move on. If you need to calculate it yourself, use one of these methods below. Note that we care about the speed, not the velocity (which is speed in a certain direction), even though the abbreviation v is often used. Ignore any turns the bicyclist makes and pretend all distance traveled is one straight line. If the bicyclist moved at a constant rate (didn't accelerate), measure the distance the bicyclist traveled in meters, and divide it by the number of seconds it took to move that distance. This will give you the average speed, which in this scenario is the same as the speed at any given moment. If the bicyclist is accelerating at constant acceleration and doesn't change direction, calculate his speed at time t with the formula "speed at time t = (acceleration)(t) + initial speed. Use seconds to measure time, meters/second to measure speed, and m/s2 to measure acceleration. Kinetic energy = (1/2)mv2. For instance, if the bicyclist is traveling at 15 m/s, its kinetic energy K = (1/2)(70 kg)(15 m/s)2 = (1/2)(70 kg)(15 m/s)(15 m/s) = 7875 kgm2/s2 = 7875 newton meters = 7875 joules. The kinetic energy formula can be derived from the definition of work, W = Fs, and the kinematic equation v2 = v02 + 2as. s refers to "change in position," or the amount of distance traveled.
A: Understand kinetic energy. Find the mass of the object. Calculate speed Enter these numbers into the following formula.

Article: If you don't want any sweet vermouth in your cocktail, substitute dry vermouth. Create a Brooklyn cocktail by adding the rye whiskey, bitters, and 2 dashes of maraschino liquor. Stir the cocktail with ice for about 30 seconds before you strain it into a chilled glass. If you can't find maraschino liquor, substitute amaretto. Put 2 to 3 ice cubes into the chilled glass before you strain the cocktail into it. The ice will slowly dilute the drink as you sip it, so a Manhattan on the rocks won't be as strong as one served "up." Avoid using crushed ice, since it will melt quickly and make the cocktail too watery.
Question: What is a summary of what this article is about?
Make a Brooklyn cocktail with dry vermouth. Serve the cocktail on ice if you don't want it as strong.

Problem: Article: Because the game is usually played outdoors, make sure you create a durable box able to withstand the elements as well as the pounding from the game itself. If you will be playing at a specific location, make sure to measure the dimensions to create a suitable board. Know what type of surface you'll be playing on. Some surfaces, like sand, may need extra design features to increase the durability of your board. Whether you're creating a simple box for your background or a mobile box with wheels and a graphic design, budget how much time and resources will be needed to create your design. There are a lot of variations to the washer game. Whether your rules require 3 hole boards, one hole boxes, nesting 3 hole boards, octagon boxes, or washer pits, make sure you design your board accordingly.
Summary: Know where you will be playing. Create a budget. Know your playing style.

Q: Take a step back and try to understand the real reason for your self-harming behaviors. Are you cutting to reduce stress or escape painful emotions? Are you cutting to as a way to feel in control of a part of your life? Was there a traumatic experience in your life that lead you to begin engaging in self-harming behaviors? Understanding the catalyst to your cutting behaviors will give you a launch pad to begin your healing. Once you have established the root of your cutting behaviors, you must access your feelings and learn how your feelings are connected to your cutting. Do not hide your emotions or bottle them up. Express what you are feeling as they occur. Try writing them down or talking to someone about your feelings. Recognize that your feelings directly impact your actions. If you are feeling exceptionally sad, the urge to cut may become stronger. By acknowledging that you are sad, you will anticipate your urges and begin to become more aware of the patterns of your self-harm behavior. Acknowledge your feeling by saying phrases like "I am feeling ____" and, "I accept that I am feeling___." Triggers are people, places, or events that provoke your cutting behaviors. Triggers vary by person, and you must understand your specific triggers to better handle your cutting behaviors. Deciphering your specific triggers may help you more readily understand what is causing your cutting behaviors. Write down events and feelings leading up to each time you cut yourself. Look for patterns and similarities to better understand your specific triggers. You will know you have been "triggered" when your emotions surge and become intense and out of proportion following the event that triggered you. Do you enter a quiet room and lay out your cutting tools or listen to a specific song before each cutting event? You likely have ritualized and sometimes unconscious behaviors you do surrounding your self-harm behavior. Become aware of these will help you notice when you are going to cut. Engage in mindfulness exercises to bring your unconscious "rituals" to the conscious. Take explicit notes on each action you engage in. For example, "I am going into my room. I am closing the door. I am rolling up my sleeves." These thoughts will interrupt your rituals and make yourself more aware. Practice being mindful by going to a quiet room and noticing your posture, where your arms hang, the temperature and smell of the room, etc Keep practicing this and soon, you will be able to become aware of your cutting rituals. Visualize how your life would be if you didn't cut. Do you think you would feel more fulfilled or could you do certain things that your cutting is holding you back from? Think about the future repercussions of your cutting behaviors such as your children asking about the scars on your arms, or jobs you might miss out on. Visualizing your life without cutting should help motivate you to end the behavior. Further motivate yourself by telling yourself that you can stop and you will stop.
A:
Decipher the root of your cutting behavior. Get in touch with your feelings. Identify your triggers. Understand your cutting rituals. Imagine your life without cutting.
