Equations Flashcards
Torque
T=Fd
Force x displacement
Angular motion
Force
F=ma
mass x acceleration
Linear motion
Moment
M=Ia
Moment of inertia x angular acceleration
Inertia
mk2
mass x radius of gyration
Hypotenuse
ab2 = ac2 + bc2
SOH CAH TOA
Sin = opposite / hypotenuse Cos = adjacent / hypotenuse Tan = opposite / adjacent
Linear Motion
Acceleration
acceleration = change in velocity / time
= (final velocity - initial velocity) / time
a = (v-u) / t
Linear Motion
Final velocity
we know that: a = (v-u)/t
so at = v-u
so u+at = v
v = u+at
Linear Motion
Average Velocity
Average velocity = displacement / time
= d/s
Average velocity = initial velocity + final velocity / 2
= (u+v) / 2
= 1/2(u+v)
Linear Motion
Displacement
Displacement = Average velocity x time
= ((initial velo + final velo) / 2) x time
s = 1/2(u+v) x t
Linear Motion
work out known parameters and insert into equation
