Equations Flashcards
Weight
weight = mass x gravitational field strength
Work done
Work done = force x distance (along the line of action from the force)
Force applied to spring
Force applied to spring = spring constant x extension
Moment of a force
moment of a force = force x distance (normal to direction of force)
Pressure
Pressure = force / area
Distance travelled
Distance travelled = speed x time
Acceleration
Acceleration = change in velocity / time
Resultant force
Resultant force = mass x acceleration
Momentum
Momentum = mass x velocity
Kinetic energy
Kinetic energy = 0.5 x mass x (speed)²
Gravitational potential energy
Gravitational potential energy = mass x gravitational field strength x height
Power
Power = energy transferred / time
or
Power = work done / time
Efficiency
Efficiency = Useful output of energy / total energy input
Wavespeed
Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
Charge flow
Charge flow = current x time
