Term
Momentum
Definition
M= mv

Momentum=mass x velocity 
Term
Energy
Definition

ET = E+ Ep

or

E= 1/2 mv2

or

Ep = mgh

Term
Work/Power
Definition

P=Δw/Δt


Power = Change in work/change in time

Term
Current
Definition

I = Q/t

Current = Charge flow/secs

Amperes=Coulumbs/secs

Term
Voltage
Definition

V=IR

Voltage = Current/Resistance

Term

Resistors in series

Resistors in Par.

Definition

Req= R1 + R2 ..

1/Req + 1/R1 + 1/R2

Term
Force
Definition

Force = ma

Force= mass x acceleration

Term
Pressure
Definition

P= F/A

Pressure = Force / Unit of Area

Term
Pressure in Static Water
Definition

ΔP = ρgΔh


Change in pressure = density x gravity x Δ in height

Term
Continuity Equation
Definition

ρvA = constant

Density x velocity of fluid x X-sectional area =constant

Term
Kirchoffs law
Definition

Σi = 0 at a junction

ΣΔV= 0 in a loop

V= voltage

sum of currents = 0

sum of voltage changes in a loop=0

Term
Weight
Definition

W=mg

Mass and gravitation constant

Term
Bouyant force
Definition

ρ = mass /volume


Fb= Vρg = mg 

Term
Optics Manification Equation
Definition

m = -i/o

image over object

If M= negative = inverted

    If M= Positive = erect image

if i is smaller than o = diminished

Term
Torque Forces
Definition


L1 = F1× r1 (CCW + ve)

 

L2 = F2× r2 (CW - ve)

 

Term
newtons second law
Definition

∑F=m x a

mass times acceleration

Term
Law of gravitation
Definition

F= KG(m1m2/ r2)

r=distance between bodies

KG is the constant

m1m2=masses

Term
Coulumbs law (use with law of gravitation)
Definition

F = k(q1q2/r2)

Note: if distance r2 is doubled, force is quartered
