    • state the 'work' equation
      work done= force x distance
    • state the 'work' symbol exuation
      w=f x d
    • what unit is the work done in
      joules
    • what unit is distance in
      meters
    • what unit is force in
      newtons
    • what is 'work done.'
      energy transferred
    • state the 4 non renewable energy resorces: coal, oil , natural gas, nuclear fuels
    • state 3 facts about non renewale energy: all run out, damage enviroment by provide energy to most things
    • what is in a power station
      fuel-boiler-turbine-generator-grid
    • what 4 energy transfers happen in a generator
      chemical-heat-kinetic-electrical
    • equation for acceleration speed and time
      a=v-u/t
    • equation for weight mass and grams
      m=w/g
    • equation for stopping distance
      thinking distance + braking distance
    • equation for force mass accesleraiotn
      m=f/a
    • equation for initial speed2: initial speed2 = 2x acceleration x distance
    • euqation for moment force distance
      f=m/d
    • equation for force spring constant extension
      k=f/d
    • what are the units for acceleration
      m/s2
    • equation for average orbital speed
      v=2pieR/t
    • state two ways the orbit of earth and mars are similar: same shape. both orbit the sun
    • state one way in which the orbit on earth and mars differ: different orbital speed
    • what is the unit for gravitational field strength
      kg/n2
    • define a force: a strength or energy as an attribute of physical action
    • if forces are balanced then at rest and moving...: rest= stay. moving= stays at an constant speed
    • example of tension
      rope or cable
    • equation for newtons law
      f=mXa
    • what does drag, air resistance and friction cause: something to slow down
    • define electrostatic force
      opposite charges
    • where does the arrow for reaction force go: straight upwards
    • where does the arrow for gravity or wright go: down
    • what does thrust cause
      speed up -
    • where are the four forces on car: thrust. reaction. drag. weight
    • equation for tension
      a= ef/m
    • what forces act on the skydiver kist after jumped out of plane: air resistance
    • what does air resistance cause terminal velocity: force slows it down as it is larger than wieght force making it unbalanced
    • what happenes to the air resistance as the skydiver accelerates: air resistance is less and the sky diver speeds up
    • what happens to airresistance when parrachute is opened: larger than weight. puller upwards and slows down
    • what force always acts opposite to motion
      friction
    • what is the equation for motion, conservation of energy: v2=u2+2as
    • define hookes law: the extension of a spring is directly proportional to the force applied
