Question Answer
Weight = mass x gravitational field strength w = m x g
Work done = force x distance w = f x d
force applied to a string = spring constant x extension f = k x e
moment of a force = force x distance m = f x d
pressure = force normal to a surface ----------------------------------------- area of that surface P = f / a
distance travelled = speed x time d = s x t
acceleration = change in velocity -------------------------------- time taken a = Δ v / t
resultant force = mass x acceleration f = m x a
momentum = mass x velocity p = m x v
kinetic energy 0.5 x mass x (velocity)² Ek = 1/2 x m x v²
gravitational potential energy = mass x gravitational field strength x height Ep = m x g x h
elastic potential energy = 1/2 x spring constant x extension² Ee = 1/2 x k x e²
power = energy transferred -------------------------------- time p = e / t
power = work done -------------------- time p = w / t
efficiency = useful output energy transfer ----------------------------------------------- total input energy transfer
efficiency = useful power out -------------------------- total power in
wave speed = frequency x wavelength v = f x λ
charge flow = current x time q = I x t
current = potential difference x resistance v = I x r
Ohms law the current through a resistor at a constant temperature is directly proportional to the potential difference across the resistor
power = potential difference x current p = v x i
power = (current)² x resistance p = I² x r
energy transferred = power x time e = p x t
energy transferred = charge flow x potential difference e = q x v
density = mass ------------------ volume p = m / v
specific heat capacity definition The specific heat capacity of a substance is the energy needed to raise the temperature of 1 kg of a substance by 1°C
potential difference definition potential difference is energy that each coulomb of charge transfers from the battery to the components in the circuit.
frequency = 1 ------------------------- period (seconds)
