Forces And Energy Flashcards
Formula For Weight:
W= Mg (Weight= Mass x Gravitational Field Strength)
Formula For Mass:
M= W/g (Mass= Weight/ Gravitational Field Strength)
Formula For Direct Proportion:
F=Ke (Force applied= Spring constant x Extension)
Is Weight N or Kg?
N
Is Mass N or Kg?
Kg
What Is The Formula For Work?
W = Fs (Work= Force x Distance)
What Is The Formula For Power? (2 answers)
Power= Energy Transferred / Time
Power= Work Done / Time
Work Done and Energy Transferred are Synonyms (LIGHTBULB!)
What Is The Formula For Watts?
Watts= Joules / Seconds
How Do We Calculate Efficiency?
Efficiency= Useful energy (power) output / Total energy (power) input x 100%
Formula For Energy Being Transferred To The GRAVITATIONAL POTENTIAL Store:
Eg = mgh
(Change in gravitational potential energy = Mass x Gravitational Field Strength x Change in height)
Formula For Energy Being Transferred To The KINETIC Store:
Ek = mv^2 / 2
(Energy in the kinetic store = Mass x Speed^2 / 2
The formula for Elastic Energy / Potential
Ke^2
