What is the equation for kinetic energy?
Show answer
Ek = ½ m v² (kinetic energy = 0.5 × mass × speed²)
What is the equation for gravitational potential energy?
Show answer
Ep = m g h (gravitational potential energy = mass × gravitational field strength × height)
What is the relationship between power, energy transferred, and time?
Show answer
P = E / t (power = energy transferred / time)
What is Ohm's Law relating potential difference, current, and resistance?
Show answer
V = I R (potential difference = current × resistance)
What is the equation for density?
Show answer
ρ = m / V (density = mass / volume)
What is the equation for weight in terms of mass and gravitational field strength?
Show answer
W = m g (weight = mass × gravitational field strength)
What is the equation for work done by a force?
Show answer
W = F s (work done = force × distance along the line of action of the force)
What is Newton's second law equation relating force, mass, and acceleration?
Show answer
F = m a (resultant force = mass × acceleration)
What is the wave equation relating wave speed, frequency, and wavelength?
Show answer
v = f λ (wave speed = frequency × wavelength)
What is the relationship between period and frequency?
Show answer
T = 1 / f (period = 1 / frequency)
What equation relates charge flow, current, and time?
Show answer
Q = I t (charge flow = current × time)
What is Hooke's Law relating force, spring constant, and extension?
Show answer
F = k e (force = spring constant × extension)
