Edexcel IGCSE Physics – Equations Verified Guide 1. What does average speed represent? - Average speed is calculated as the distance traveled divided by the time taken. 2. Define force in terms of its components. - Force is the product of mass and acceleration, according to Newton's second law. 3. Explain acceleration in relation to changes in velocity. - Acceleration is the rate at which velocity changes over time. 4. Define momentum and its components. - Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of an object. 5. What is density and how is it measured? - Density is defined as mass per unit volume, calculated by dividing mass by volume. 6. How is efficiency calculated? - Efficiency is determined by dividing useful energy output by total energy input. 7. Describe work done in terms of force and displacement. - Work done is the product of force applied and the distance moved in the direction of the force. 8. Explain energy transferred and its relationship to work done. - Energy transferred is equivalent to the work done. 9. Define kinetic energy and its formula. - Kinetic energy is calculated as half of the mass multiplied by the square of velocity. 10. What does GPE stand for and how is it calculated? - GPE, or gravitational potential energy, is determined by multiplying mass, gravitational acceleration, and height. 11. Define weight and how it is calculated. - Weight is the product of mass and gravitational field strength. 12. Explain pressure and how it is computed. - Pressure is defined as force per unit area. 13. Define moment and how it is calculated in relation to force and distance. - Moment is the product of force applied and the perpendicular distance from the pivot point. charge (Q) = ️current (I) x time (t) voltage (V) = ️current (I) x resistance(r) electrical power = ️voltage (V) x current (I) wave speed = ️frequency x wavelength input power = ️output power input (primary) voltage / output (secondary) voltage = ️primary turns/secondary turns
