Physics 1 Flashcards
center of buoyancy
located at center of mass of fluid displaced by submerged object
range
range = (Vx) (t)
distance/height
distance/height = (rate) (time)
X = (1/2) (a) (t)^2
velocity
(or 2ax)
time in air
tair = (2V) / (g)
round trip times, V must be Vy initial
terminal velocity
mg = Fair
force of gravity
G = 6.67x10^11
can be used everywhere
F = mg
can be used close to earth
gravitational field
gravitational potential energy
can be used in space, or when g ≠ 10 m/s^2
PE = mgh
can be used near earth
friction
inclined planes
Hooke’s Law
F = k∆x
*** pay attention to sign - or +
f = 1/2π √(k/m)
f = frequency = 1/T (period)
elastic potential energy
simple harmonic motion
T = time of period = full cycle (back and forth)
density
