Crucial Equarions To Learn Flashcards
Kinetic energy
Ek = 1/2mv^2
Gravitational potential energy
Gpe = mgh
Power
Power = work done / time
Power = energy / time
P = IV
P = I^2 x R
Efficiency
Useful energy output / total energy input
Elastic potential energy
Ep = 1/2ke^2
Change in thermal energy
E = Mass X specific heat capacity X temperature change
Charge flow
Q = IT
Potential Difference
V = IR
Potential difference = Current x Resistance
Total resistance
Total resistance = Resistance of component 1 + resistance of component 2
Rt = R1 + R2
Energy transferred
Energy transferred = Power x time
(E = Pt)
Energy transferred = Charge flow x Potential difference
(E = QV)
Density
Mass / Volume
Thermal energy for a change in state
E = mL
Energy = Mass x Specific latent heat
Wave speed
Wave speed = Frequency x Wavelength
Weight
W = mg
Weight = Mass x Gravitational field strength
Work done
W = FD
Work done = Force x Distance (moved along the line of action of the force)
Force
F = ke (Force = Spring constant x Extension)
F = ma (Force = Mass x Acceleration)
F = mΔv / t (force = change in momentum / time)
F = M / D (Force = moments / distance)
Momentum
Momentum = Mass x Velocity
p = mv
Pressure
P = hρg (pressure = Height x Density of liquid x gravitational field strength)
Change in velocity
v^2 - u^2 = 2as
(final velocity)^2 - (initial velocity)^2 = 2 x acceleration x DISTANCE
