Paper 1 Equations Flashcards
Acceleration a = v-u/t
Acceleration = change in velocity / time
Resultant force f = m x a
Resultant force = mass x acceleration
Weight w = m x g
Weight = mass x gravitational field strength
Momentum p = m x v
Momentum = mass x velocity
Wave speed v = f x λ
Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
Efficiency
Efficiency = useful energy transferred by the device/ total energy supplied to the device
Kinetic energy KE = ½ x m x v2
Kinetic Energy = ½ x mass x (speed)^2
Change in gravitational potential energy
ΔGPE = m x g x Δh
Change in gravitational potential energy = mass x gravitational field strength x change in vertical height
Work done E = F x d
Work done = force x distance moved in the direction of the force
Power p = e/t
Power = work done / time
