Formulas And SI Units Flashcards
Formula for momentum
P=mv
Momentum=mass x velocity
SI unit of momentum
Kg m/s
SI unit for velocity
m/s
SI unit of impulse
Kg m/s
Impulse formula
I=Ft=mv-mu
Impulse=force x time=final-initial momentum
Formula for change in momentum
ΔP= F x Δt
What unit do you give if they ask you for the period of a pendulum swing
Seconds, s
Explain the advantage of taking multiple readings and then taking an average
Reduces random error
Outliers can be ruled out
What is Hooke’s law formula
F=kx
Force formula
F=ma
What is the formula for kinetic energy
1/2mv^2
What is the formula for G.P.E
mgh
What the formula for the combination of kinetic and g.p.e
1/2mu^2+mgh=1/2mv^2
Formula for energy efficiency%
(Give the one including power as well)
Energy efficiency%=useful energy(power) out/total energy(power) in × 100
What is the si unit for pressure
Pa or N/m^2
