Physics Review: Projectile Motion and Kinematics

Flashcards created to help review key concepts in physics related to projectile motion, kinematics, and unit conversions.

Brown v. Board of Education

A landmark decision where the Supreme Court ruled that separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.

Unit of Weber per Ampere

This measures magnetic flux per unit current, indicating a relationship in electromagnetic induction.

Specific Heat Capacity

Amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a unit mass of a substance by one degree Celsius.

Stephen's Constant

A constant used in the Stefan-Boltzmann law, which states the power radiated by a black body is proportional to the fourth power of its temperature.

Kilometers to Meters Conversion

To convert from kilometers per hour to meters per second, multiply by 5/18.

Density Conversion from kg/m³ to g/cm³

To convert from kg/m³ to g/cm³, divide by 1000.

Newton to CGS System Conversion

1 Newton equals 10^5 dyne in CGS units.

Work Energy Conversion from Joules to CGS System

1 Joule equals 10^7 ergs in CGS units.

Sig Figs in Subtraction

When subtracting, the answer should be reported with the least number of decimal places of any number in the operation.

Order of Magnitude

The power of ten when expressing a number in scientific notation; the exponent indicates the order of magnitude.
