Forces and Pressure Flashcards
1
Q
force (N)
A
mass (kg) x acceleration (m/s²)
or
rate of change of momentum
2
Q
weight on Earth (N)
A
mass (kg) x 10 (m/s²)
3
Q
momentum (kgm/s)
A
mass (kg) x velocity
4
Q
density (kg/m³)
A
mass (kg) / volume (m³)
5
Q
Hooke’s Law
A
force = contant x extension
6
Q
pressure (Pa)
A
force (N) / volume (m³)
7
Q
underwater pressure (Pa)
A
height (m) x density (kg/m³) x gravitational field strength ([10 on Earth] m/s²)
8
Q
moment (Nm)
A
force (N) x distance from pivot (m)
