Equations Flashcards
Energy transferred is equivalent to…
work done.
Work done =
Force x Distance
Change in gravitational potential energy store =
Weight x Change in Height or
Mass x Gravitational Field Strength (9.81) x Change in Height
Kinetic energy =
Mass x Speed*
Elastic potential energy =
1/2 x Spring Constant x Extension*
Efficiency =
Useful Output/Total Input
Power =
Energy Transferred/Time Taken
Charge flow =
Current x Time
Energy transferred in an electric circuit =
Charge Flow x Potential Difference
Resistance =
Potential Difference/Current
Total resistance of multiple components =
The sum of the resistance of each component.
Power supplied to a resistor =
Current* x Resistance
Energy transferred from mains =
Power x Time
Power supplied to an electrical appliance =
Current x Potential Difference
Density =
Mass/Volume
