Equations Flashcards
Speed
Distance/time (m/s)
Acceleration
Change in speed/ time taken (m/s2)
Weight
Mass x gravity (N)
Density
Mass/ volume (kg/m3)
Force
Mass x acceleration (N)
(mv - mu)/t
Hooke’s force
Spring constant x extension (N)
Moment
Force x perp. distance from pivot (Nm)
Momentum
Mass x velocity (m/s2)
P=mv
Impulse
Ft= mv - mu
Force x time = mass x final velocity - mass x initial velocity
Kinetic energy
1/2mv2 (J)
G.P.E
Mgh (J)
Efficiency
Useful energy output/ energy input x100
Useful power output/ energy input x100
Work done (2)
Force x distance (J)
Power x time taken
Power
Work done/ time taken (N)
Energy
Power x time
Mass x specific heat capacity x change in temp.
Pressure in solids
Force/ area (Pa or N/m2)
Pressure in liquids
Density x gravity x height (Pa)
Specific heat capacity
C= E/ m x change temp.
Thermal capacity
E/ change in temp.
Latent heat
L= E/ m
Final speed
V = u + at
Final speed = initial speed + acceleration x time
