Q

Centripetal force

A

Fc = (mv**2)/r = mrw (force towards center in circular motion in N) (w is angular speed)

18
Q

Period

19
Q

Universal gravitation

A

F = G(m1m2/r**2) (force between two masses m1 et m2)

20
Q

Gravitational field

A

g = GM/r**2 (field around mass M)

21
Q

Wave speed

A

v = f*lamba (speed = frequency * wavelength)

22
Q

23
Q

Lens / mirror equation

A

1/f = (1/u) + (1/v) ( focal length, object distance, image distance)

24
Q

Magnification

A

m = v/u = (image size / object size)

25
Charge flow
Q = I t (charge flow = current per time)
26
Voltage potential difference
V = E/Q
27
Ohm’s Law
V = IR
28
Resistivity
R = pho * L/A (pho in ohm by m, L in m, and A in m **2)
29
Power in electric circuits (4)
P = E/t = IV = I**2 * R = V**2/R
30
Energy in circuits
E = VQ = IVt
31
Resistance in series
R = R1 +R2 + …
32
Resistance in parallel
1/R = 1/R1 + 1/R2 + …
33
Magnetic force on current
F = BIL
34
Force on a moving charge
F = qvB ( charge q moving at speed v in magnetic field B)
35
If power in = power out
V1I1 = V2I2
36

V1/V2 = N1/N2
37
Ideal gas law
pV = nRT = m(R/M)T (pressure * volume = moles * gas constant + temperature or using mass and molar mass)
38
39
Pressure
p = F/A (force per area) (Pa = N/m**2)
