Work, Energy, and Power & Sound Flashcards
What is work?
Work occurs when force is applied to an object and it moves.
work formula
W=FĂd
Define energy.
The ability to do work.
What is the formula for kinetic energy?
KE= 1/2 mv2
What is the formula for gravitational potential energy?
PE=mgh
State the work-energy theorem.
The total work done by the sum of all forces acting on a particle is equal to the change in the kinetic energy of that particle.
What are the three elements needed for sound production?
A source, a medium, and a receiver.
What are the three mediums through which sound can travel?
Gas, liquid, and solid.
What is the speed of sound in air at 0âđ¶
331 m/s
What is the formula to determine the speed of sound in air at varying temperatures?
v=(331+0.60T)
