Equations - Paper 2 Flashcards
Distance travelled?
Speed x time
S = v t
Acceleration?
Change in velocity / time taken
a = v - u / t
Wave speed?
Frequency x wavelength
V = f x wavelength
Period?
1 / frequency
Newton’s 2nd Law?
Acceleration = force / mass
a = F / m
Weight?
Mass x gravitational field strength
w = m g
Work done?
Force x distance moved
W = F D
Hooke’s law?
Force = spring constant x spring extension
F = k e
Efficiency?
Useful energy / Energy put in x100
E= useful/input x100
Velocity²?
this is on the formula sheet
Initial velocity² + 2 x Acceleration x Displacement
v²=u²+2as
(this is on the formula sheet)
Elastic potential energy?
this is on the formula sheet
1/2 x Spring constant x Extension²
Ee=1/2ke²
(this is on the formula sheet)
Momentum?
Mass x Velocity
m = m x v
