Formula for speed
average speed = distance moved / time taken
1 of 10
Formula for acceleration
acceleration = change in velocity / time taken
2 of 10
formula regarding weight, mass and gravity
weight = mass x gravitational field strength (W = mXg)
3 of 10
formula regarding resultant force
f = ma (resultant force = mass x acceleration)
4 of 10
formula for momentum
Momentum(Kg m/s) = Mass(Kg)x Velocity(m/s)
5 of 10
formula for momentum change
Force acting (N) = Change in momentum (kg m/s) / Time taken (s)
6 of 10
formula for moment
MOMENT (Nm) = FORCE (N) x perpendicular DISTANCE (m) between line of action and pivot
7 of 10
Principle of moment (if object is balanced)
Total Anticlockwise Moments = Total Clockwise Moments
8 of 10
Principle of moment (if object is unbalanced)
If the Total Anticlockwise Moments do not equal the Total Clockwise Moments, there will be a Resultant Moment
9 of 10
Formula for the speed of an orbit
orbital speed = 2 x π x orbital radius / Time period (v = 2πr /t)
