Calculations Flashcards
Weight
Weight = mass X gravitational field strength
N= Kg X N/kg
Work done
Work done = force X distance
J= N X M
Force applied to a spring
Force applied to a spring= spring constant X extension
N= N/m X M
Distance travelled
Distance travelled= speed X time
M=M/s X S
Acceleration
………………………………M/s
^
Change in velocity. V
Acceleration=—————————- A=——-
M/s2. Time taken. T
S
Resultant force
Resultant force= mass X acceleration
N= Kg X M/s2
Momentum
Momentum= mass X velocity
Kgm/s = Kg X M/s
Kinetic energy
E= 0.5 X M X V^2
Kinetic energy=0,5 X mass X speed^2
