Equations Flashcards
Average speed
distance moved / time taken
Acceralation
acceleration= (change in velocity) / (time taken)
a= (v-u) / t
force
force= mass × acceleration
F = m × a
weight
weight = mass × gravitational field strength
W = m × g
momentum
momentum = mass × velocity
p = m × v
moment
moment= force × perpendicular distance from the pivot
wave speed
wave speed = frequency × wavelength
v = f × λ
efficiency
efficiency = (useful energy output) / (total energy input)
work done
Work done = force × distance moved
W = F × d
gravitational potential energy
Gravitational potential energy = mass × g × height
GPE = m × g × h
kinetic energy
kinetic energy = 1/2 × mass × speed^2
KE = 1/2 × m × v^2
energy transferred
energy transferred = work done
energy transferred
energy transferred = work done
density
density = mass / volume
ρ = m / V
pressure
pressure = force / area
p = F / A
