Equations (Paper 1) Flashcards
What is the equation for speed?
Speed = distance / time
What is the equation for acceleration?
Acceleration = (final velocity-initial velocity) / time
What is the equation for force?
F = ma (force = mass x acceleration)
What is the equation for weight?
Weight = mass x gravitational field strength
What is the equation for momentum?
Momentum = mass x velocity
What is the equation for change in GPE?
Change in GPE = weight x change in height
What is the equation for kinetic energy?
KE = 1/2 x mass x speed^2
What is the equation for energy efficiency?
Energy efficiency = useful energy / total energy
What is the equation for wave speed?
Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
What is the second equation for wave speed?
Wave speed = distance / time
