  • Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. It is proportional to the mass and velocity of an object.
  • the area under a velocity time graph gives us distance
  • the gradient of a distance-time graph gives us the speed of the object.,
  • Newtons first law is where an object in a state of motion remains in that state unless acted upon it
  • Newtons second law is the force acting on an object is equal to the resultant force acting on the object aka F=ma
  • Newtons third law is where every action has an equal and opposite reaction
  • Terminal velocity is defined as the maximum speed an object can attain as it falls
  • Heat Transfer
    A type of energy transfer that occurs when there is a temperature difference between two objects or systems.
  • Conduction
    Heat transfer through direct contact between particles (solids, liquids, gases)
