Physics Equations Mind Map
  1. Newtons Laws
    1. 1st Law:
      1. If there is no resultant force acting on an object it will move with constant velocity
      2. 2nd Law
        1. If resultant force acts on a body, the body will accelerate in the direction of the force
          1. F = ma
        2. 3rd Law
          1. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction
        3. Waves
          1. frequency = number of waves / time

                            2. Power = energy supplied / time
                              1. Power = work done (J) / time(s)
                              2. Gain in KE = Loss in GPE
