Question 1

Final Velocity

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate the final velocity "v"of a motion starting with an initial velocity "vo" and experiencing a single constant acceleration "a" for a time "t"

Question 2

position

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate the final position "x" based on initial position "xo" initial velocity "vo" the acceleration "a" that lasts for time "t"

Question 3

Final Velocity Squared

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate the square of the final velocity "v^2" based on the square of the initial velocity "vo^2" the acceleration and the displacement

Question 4

Newton's Second Law

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate the net force acting ON an object based on the objects mass "m" and acceleration "a"

Question 5

Friction

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate The Force of static or kinetic friction acting on an object based on the coefficient of friction "mu" between the object and the surface and the normal force "FN"

Question 6

Centripetal acceleration

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate the centripetal acceleration based on the objects speed "v" and the radius of the turn "r"

Question 7

momentum

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate an objects momentum "p" based on the objects mass "m" and velocity " v"

Question 8

impulse

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate the impulse "J" (not shown) which is equal to the change in momentum "delta p" (shown) which is also equal to the product of the Force "F" and length of time "delta t" that the force acts on the object.

Question 9

Kinetic Energy

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate the Kinetic energy "K" based on the mass "m" and the speed squared "v^2"

Question 10

Work

Accepted Answer

This equation shows how to calculate Work "W" as either the change in energy "delta E" or as the product of a force "F" and the displacement "delta d" that the force acts through. If they are not in the same direction, the angle "theta" must be included in the calculation.
