Motion In The Universe Flashcards
What is the equation to find out average SPEED?
Average speed = distance over time
What is the equation to find out the DISTANCE?
Distance = time x speed
What is a universe?
A universe is a large collection of billions of galaxies
What is a galaxy?
A large collection of billions of stars
Where is our solar system located?
In the Milky Way galaxy
Weight (W) = ? x ?
Weight = Mass x Gravitational field strength (W = m x g)
What is the equation to find out TIME TAKEN?
Time taken = distance travelled / average speed
Average Velocity = ?
u + v / 2
Average velocity = ? / ? (The more important & useful version)
Average velocity = total distance / total time taken
Gradient of a graph = rise / run = ∆ distance / ∆ time = ?
= velocity
Original period (T) = distance travelled / average speed = circumference of the orbit / orbital speed
T = 2πr / v
