Formulas Flashcards
1
Q
Speed
A
speed=distance/time
s=d/t
2
Q
Acceleration
A
a=vf-vi/t
acceleration=final velocity minus initial velocity over time
3
Q
Kinetic Energy
A
KE=1/2mv^2
one half mass times speed squared
4
Q
Gravitational Potential Energy
A
GPE=mgh
mass x gravity x height
5
Q
Work
A
W =Fx
Work = Force x distance in meters
6
Q
Mechanical Energy
A
PE + KE
7
Q
Force
A
F=ma
Force equals mass times acceleration
8
Q
Momentum
A
p=mv
momentum equals mass times velocity
9
Q
Velocity
A
v=d/t
velocity equals distance divided by time
