What are the Kinematics Formulas?
|
Vf = Vo + at
Vf^2 = Vo^2 + 2a ΔX ΔX = Vot + (1/2)at^2 ΔX = (1/2)(Vf - Vo)t |
|
Is total mechanical energy constant if the only forces acting on a body are conservative?
|
Yes
E = K + U = Constant |
|
What are the work and internal energy formulas for an Isobaric process?
|
W = -PΔV
ΔU = Q - PΔV (as the system expands, W<0 , the system has done work) (example - weighted piston) |
|
What are the work and internal energy formulas for an isochloric process?
|
(isovolumetric)
W = 0 ΔU = Q (because no work is done to or by the system, ΔU = heat absorbed) (example - constant V thermometer) |
|
What are the work and internal energy formulas for an isothermal process?
|
W = -Q
ΔU = 0 (work done by the system is equal to the heat absorbed by the system) |
|
What are the work and internal energy formulas for an adiabatic process?
|
W = ΔU
Q = 0 (since the system exchanges no heat, the change in volume is related only to a change in temperature) |
|
What is the formula for the first law of thermodynamics?
|
ΔU = (heat energy gained) - (work done by the system)
ΔU = Q - W |
|
Electric Field = ?
|
E = k(q/r^2)
|
|
Electric Field Force =
|
F = qE
|
|
What are the units of an electric field?
|
(newtons/couloumb) or (volts/meter)
|
|
What are the units of voltage
|
(joules/coulomb) or Volts
|
|
Electric potential =
|
V = k(q/r)
|
|
Electrical potential energy =
|
U = qv
|
|
Zeroth law of thermodynamics
|
a system is in thermal equilibrium when it experiences no net change in thermal energy
|
|
second law of thermodynamics
|
ΔS = ΔQ/T
the entropy of the universe is spontaneously increasing - thermal energy will flow toward equilibrium |
|
Magnetic field created by a long straight wire
B = |
B = (uo I) / (2 pi r)
|
|
Magnetic field created by a wire loop
B = |
B = (uo I) / (2r)
|
|
Electrical Power
P = |
(I^2 R) , (I V) , (V^2 / R)
|
|
What are Kirchoff's Laws?
|
1 - Current is conserved in a circuit
2 - the voltage drops = the voltage rises in a circuit |
|
|
|
|
Electric field between capacitor plates
E = |
E = V / d
|
|
Capacitance C =
|
C = Q / V
C = Eo (A / d) |
|
Hooke's Law
F = |
F = -kx
|
|
angular frequency for a mass on the end of a spring? for a pendulum?
w = |
w = ((sqrt) k / m)
w = ((sqrt) g / L) |
|
potential energy in simple harmonic motion
U = |
U = 1/2 k x^2
U(pendulum) = mgh |
|
Period of a mass on a spring?
On a pendulum? |
T = 2 pi ((sqrt) m / k)
T = 2 pi ((sqrt) L / g) |
