formulas Flashcards
1
Q
speed?
A
speed (m/s)= distance (m) / time (s)
(v=x/t)
2
Q
wave speed?
A
wave speed (m/s)= frequency (Hz) x wavelength (m)
(v=fh)
3
Q
force exerted on a spring?
A
force exerted on a sprint (N) = spring constant (N/m) x extension (m)
(F= k x)
4
Q
energy transferred in stretching?
A
energy transferred in stretching (J)= 0.5 x spring constant (N/m) x extension^2 (m^2)
(E= 1/2kx^2)
5
Q
velocity?
A
velocity= displacement/ time
(x/t or s/t)
6
Q
density?
A
density= mass/volume
7
Q
velocity and braking distance
A
v(velocity) —>d braking (braking distance) x 4
(velocity —> braking distance x 4)
