   Quote from that letter (written by Einstein about torpedos):   
      
   "If v is the speed of a torpedo of the mass m, the negative accelerating   
   force K, the way or acceleration Δ , then K is given by the equation   
   1/2mv2 = kΔ   
      
   If one puts f.instance   
      
   m = 100 kg. = 10^5g   
      
   v = 25m = 2,5 10^3cm   
      
   Δ = 10 cm"   
      
      
   Interesting are the units.   
      
   For instance v is measured in meters and 'acceleration' in centimeters (???)
