Default Density Functions
Quote:
A particle of mass M has a random velocity, V, which is normally distributed with parameters \mu = 0 and \sigma. Find the density function of the kinetic energy.
I've asked this before in a previous post, however, while not quite necessary then, the answer did not include full workings, and I think I sort of need that just now to make sure I understand this.
I'm writing another semester test tomorrow, so I would appreciate if someone could show me how this is done.



(Not sure whether it would be classified as "bumping" to bring up the old topic again, I decided to just as well post it in a new thread. Please show full workings.)

Thanks in advance guys
