Physics equations Flashcards
Acceleration
Acceleration = change in velocity/time taken
Velocity
Velocity = distance travelled/ time taken
(Resultant) Force
Force = mass x acceleration
Work done
Work= force x distance
Power
Power = energy transferred/time
Volume
Volume = length x depth x breadth
Pressure
Pressure = force/area
Density
Density = mass/volume
Charge
Charge = current x time
Voltage
Voltage = energy transferred/charge
Resistance
Resistance = voltage/current
Frequency
Frequency = waves/second
Momentum
Momentum = mass x velocity
Moment
Moment = force x perpendicular distance from pivot
Voltage
V=IR
Wave speed
Wave speed = frequency x wavelength
Angle of incidence
Angle of incidence = angle of reflection
Refractive index
Refractive index (n) = sin(i)/sin(r)
Refractive index
Refractive index (n) = 1/sin(critical angle)
Power
Work done/ time taken
Density
Density = mass/volume
Pressure difference
Pressure difference = height x density x gravitational field strength
Boyle’s law
p1 x V1 = p2 x V2
OR p1/p2 = V2/V1
P1/T1 = P2/T2
P1/T1 = P2/T2
Kelvin
0*C = 273K
