  • A force is a push or pull that acts on an object
    Force=Force=mv2/rmv^2/r
  • f=force
    m=mass
    v=velocity
    r=radius
  • Forces are vector quantities therefore have magnitude(size)and direction.
  • Mass is the amount of matter in an object
    Weight is the force of gravity on an object
  • Weight(inNewtons)=Weight(in Newtons)=mass(inkg)xgravitationalfieldstrength(inN/kg)mass(in kg)x gravitational field strength (in N/kg)
  • Weight(in Newtons)= mass(in kg)x gravitational field strength(in N/kg)
    Force=mass x area
    • Gravitational field strength =10N/kg
  • Scalars and Vectors
    A Scalar quantity has magnitude(size) only
    A Vector quantity has magnitude and direction
  • TANcent= opposite/adjacent
  • If it is COSine=adjacent/hypotenuse.
  • If it is SINe=opposite/hypotenuse
