Physics/Biology Term 4 Flashcards
What is energy
Energy is the ability to do work - is measured in Joules (J)
Forms of Energy
Kinetic (moving object)
- Thermal
- Magnetic
- Electrical
- MECHANICAL
Potential (stored energy)
- Gravitational
- Elastic
- Nuclear
- Chemical
kind monkeys thoroughly enjoy music. pouting giraffes never even clean.
What can one joule do?
Lift 1kg 10cm and lift 10kg 1cm
How do you calculate potential energy
E=mgh
How do you calculate kinetic energy
E=0.5mv²
What is work
the force applied over a distance
How do you calculate work?
W=Fd
work= force x displacement
What is work is done
Energy transferred
What is a force and different types of force
A force is a push, pull or twist in any direction. Measured in Newtons (N)
Contact
- push
- pull
- tension
- buoyancy
- friction
- air resistance
Non-Contact
- magnetic
- gravitational
- electrostatic
can peter pull together baking flourless apple rubarb?
no can’t gavin might explode
How do you calculate force?
F=ma
Force= mass x acceleration
How to calculate speed/velocity
v=d/t
Velocity = distance/time
Measured in m/s
How to calculate acceleration
A=△V / △T
Acceleration = change in velocity/change in time
