Physics Flashcards
Average Velocity
Total displacement / Total time
Average Speed
Total distance traveled / Total time
Joule Units
kg m^2 / s^2
Watt Units
W = J / s = Nm / s = kg m^2 / s^3
Volt Units
V = J / C
With a concave mirror, what image is produced if the object is greater than the focal length?
Real and inverted.
With a concave mirror, what image is produced if the object is less than the focal length?
Virtual and upright.
With a convex mirror, what image is produced?
Virtual, upright, and smaller.
What occurs when light travels from a medium with a higher index to a medium with a lower index of refraction.
Total internal reflection.
What are the four fundamental forces of nature?
Strong nuclear force
Weak nuclear force
Electrostatic force
Gravitation
Ohm Units
Ohm = V / A
Amp Units
A = C / s
Farad Units
F = C / V
Newton Units
