Physics Cheat Sheet -
Essential Formulas &
Concepts
" 1. Mechanics
Motion (Kinematics &Dynamics)
Velocity-Time Equation: v=u+at
2 Displacement Equation: s = ut + (1/2) at?
Velocity-Displacement Relation: v² = u + 2as
4 Newton's Laws of Motion:
" 1st Law: An object remains at rest or in
uniform motion unless acted upon by an
external force.
" 2nd Law: F= ma (Force = Mass x
Acceleration).
" 3rd Law: Every action has an equal and
opposite reaction.
Work, Energy &Power
Work Done: W = Fd cos(0)
6 Kinetic Energy: KE = (1/2)mv²
Potential Energy: PE = mgh
8 Power: P = W/t
9 Conservation of Energy: Energy transforms
from one form to another.
