Formulae - LEARN! Flashcards
Distance travelled
Distance travelled = average speed x time
Acceleration
Acceleration = change in velocity/time taken
Force
Force = mass x acceleration
Weight
Weight = mass x gravitational field strength
Momentum
Momentum = mass x velocity
Change in GPE
Change in GPE = mass x gravitational field strength x change in vertical height
Kinetic energy
Kinetic energy = 1/2 x m x v^2
Efficiency
Efficiency = useful energy transferred/total energy supplied
Wave speed
Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
Speed
Speed = distance/time
Work done
Work done = force x distance moved in the direction of the force
Energy transferred
Energy transferred = charge moved x voltage (p.d)
Charge
Charge = current x time
Voltage (p.d)
Voltage (p.d) = current x resistance
Power
Power = energy transferred or work done/time taken
