Mechanics Flashcards
sinθ =
opposite / hypotenuse
cosθ =
adjacent / hypotenuse
tanθ =
opposite / adjacent
τ = (moments)
Fd
Σ clockwise moments =
Σ anticlockwise moments
SUVAT without t
v^2 = u^2 + 2as
SUVAT without s
a = (v-u) / t
SUVAT without v
s = ut + 1/2 at^2
SUVAT without u
s = vt - 1/2 at^2
SUVAT without a
s = t (v+u) / 2
range of projectile
horizontal distance travelled
NI states
a body will REMAIN at REST or at a CONSTANT VELOCITY unless acted on by a RESULTANT force
NII states
the RESULTANT FORCE of an object is equal to its RATE OF CHANGE IN MOMENTUM where force and momentum are in the SAME DIRECTION
Special case of NII
f = ma where mass is constant and f and a are in the same direction
NIII states
If body A exerts a force on body B, then body B will exert an force on body A of EQUAL MAGNITUDE.but in the OPPOSITE direction
