physics equaitions AQA GCSE Flashcards
*unit 1
what is kinetic energy clue= kinetic energy= 1/2massspeed
EK = 1/2mv^2
*unit 1
GPE = mass × gravitational field strength × height
E^p=mgh
*unit 1
power = work done /time taken = energy transferred/time taken
𝑃=𝑊/𝑡=𝐸/𝑡
- unit 1
effciency=useful energy output /total energy input
efciency=useful power output
- there is no short version of this one
equations given in the exam
“elastic potential energy = 0.5 × spring constant x “ “ (extension)”^”2”
E_e=1/2 ke^2
“change in thermal energy = mass ×”
“ specific heat capacity × temperature change”
ΔE=mcΔθ
*unit 2
charge flow=current*time
Q= I t
potential difference = current × resistance
V=I R
total resistance = resistance of component 1 +
resistance of component 2
R_T =R_1+R_2
power = current × potential difference
P=I V
“power = “ 〖”(current)” 〗^”2” “ × resistance”
P= I^2 R
“energy transferred = power × time”
E=Pt
“energy transferred = charge flow × potential difference”
E=QV
unit 3
to learn
“density = “ “mass” /”volume”
ρ= m/V
eqautions given in the exam
“change in thermal energy = mass × specific heat capacity × temperature change”
change in thermal engery ΔE=mcΔθ
