Topic 1.1 and 1.2 Flashcards
Acceleration equation
velocity change ÷ time taken
or
change in speed ÷ change in time
Weight definition (w)
Gravitational force on an object with mass (N)
Velocity equation
Velocity= Displacement ÷ Time
Mass definition (m)
quantity of matter present in a substance (kg)
Slope/Gradient equation
Rise ÷ Run
Are of a circle
pi x r²
Equation for speed
Speed= Distance ÷ Time
Volume
Length x breadth x height
Speed meaning
How fast something goes in any direction
Acceleration meaning
Rate of change in velocity (m/s²)
Distance
How far and object moves
(scalar- no direction)
Displacement definition
shortest distance between two points
(vector- magnitude and direction)
Velocity meaning
How fast an object moves in a particular distance (m/s)
Density definition (D)
Ratio of mass to volume (kg/m³) (g/cm³)
Equation for Weight (w)
Mass (m) x Gravity (g)
