Physics










Kinematics Formulas
  • Displacement:
    Δx=vi+12at2\Delta x=vi+\frac12at^2
      - where Δx\Delta x = displacement, vivi = initial velocity, aa = acceleration, tt = time.

  • Final Velocity:
      v=vi+atv=vi+at
      - where vv = final velocity.

  • Velocity-Time Relation:
      v2=vi2+2aΔxv^2=vi^2+2a\Delta x

  • Average Velocity:
      vavg=Δxtv_{avg}=\frac{\Delta x}{t}
      - where ss = total displacement, tt = total time.

  • Acceleration:
      a=vvita=\frac{v-vi}{t}

Circuit Formulas
  • Ohm's Law:
      V=IRV = IR
      - where VV = voltage (volts), II = current (amperes), RR = resistance (ohms).

  • Power:
      P=IVP = IV
      - where PP = power (watts).

  • Resistance in Series:
      Rtotal=R1+R2+R3++RnR_{total} = R_1 + R_2 + R_3 + … + R_n

  • Resistance in Parallel:
      1Rtotal=1R1+1R2+1R3++1Rn\frac{1}{R_{total}} = \frac{1}{R_1} + \frac{1}{R_2} + \frac{1}{R_3} + … + \frac{1}{R_n}

  • Capacitance in Parallel:
      Ctotal=C1+C2++CnC_{total} = C_1 + C_2 + … + C_n

Kirchhoff's Laws
  • Kirchhoff's Current Law (KCL):
      Iin=Iout\sum I_{in} = \sum I_{out}
      - The total current entering a junction equals the total current leaving the junction.

  • Kirchhoff's Voltage Law (KVL):
      V=0\sum V = 0
      - The sum of the electrical potential differences (voltage) around any closed circuit is zero.

The quadratic formula is used to find the solutions of a quadratic equation of the form ax2+bx+c=0ax^2 + bx + c = 0. The formula is given by:
x=b±b24ac2ax = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}
Where:

  • a = coefficient of x2x^2

  • b = coefficient of xx

  • c = constant term

  • b24acb^2 - 4ac is known as the discriminant, which determines the nature of the roots:
      - If the discriminant is greater than 0, there are two real and distinct solutions.
      - If the discriminant is equal to 0, there is one real solution (repeated root).
      - If the discriminant is less than 0, there are no real solutions (the roots are complex).
