formulas from chapter 3 Flashcards
displacement
displacement(delta x) = final position - initial position
means “change in”
delta
pythagorean theorem
axa + bxb = cxc
speed
speed= distance/ time
(The / means over or divided by )
velocity
v= displacement / time
acceleration
a= final velocity - initial velocity divided by time
what is the unit of force
newton
what is weight measured in
force
force/ second law of motion
F = ma
or force = mass x acceleration
newton
kgm/s(second) squared
kgm squared over second squared
joule
g ( force of gravity on an object)
g= 9.81 m/s squared
weight
Force of weight = mass x g (9.81 m/s squared )
law of universal gravitation
Force = G x mass of object 1 x mass of object 2 over distance squared
distance
d= 1/2 (acceleration of gravity) (time) squared
d= 1/2 gt squared
AMA
output force / input force
momentum
mass x velocity
IMA
input distance/ output distance
efficiency
work output/ work input
power
work / time
friction force
coefficient of friction x weight
work
force x distance
