  • speed
    distance / time
  • force = mass x acceleration
  • displacement
    d/t (remember displacement) (final position - initial)
  • acceleration
    Δv/t
  • Force due to gravity
    Fg= mg
    (mass) (gravity = 9.8)
  • net force
    Fnet= ma (acceleration)
    acceleration= fnet/m
  • Work done
    when force makes something move
    w= ΔE
    or
    Work = Force × Distance
  • Gravitational potential energy
    the potential stored energy a object has due to height
    Eg= mgh
  • kinetic energy
    Ek= 1/2 m v2
  • efficiency
    A measure of how well a system performs its intended function with the least amount of waste or energy loss.
    fraction of energy that is useful
     Output ÷ Input x 100
  • Newtons first law- inertia
    an object will stay at rest unless an unbalanced force acts on it
    and object will continue moving unless and unbalanced force acts on it
  • newtons second law - acceleration
    acceleration depends on the size of netforce and mass

    f = m x a
  • Newtons third law
    for every action, there is an opposite and equal reaction
  • newtons 3 laws
    first 2 laws, forces acting on a single object, effect
    last law is 2 objects w force
