25
what is the unit name of density
kilograms per metres cubed
26
what is the unit name of force
newtons or kilogramsmetres per second
27
what is the unit name of energy
joules
28
what is the unit name of work
kilograms metres squared
29
what is the unit name of power
watts or joules per second or kilograms per second
30
what is the abbreviation of density
kg/m^3
31
what is the abbreviation of force
N or kgms^2
32
what is the abbreviation of energy
J
33
what is the abbreviation of work
kgm^2s^-2
34
what is the abbreviation of power
W or J/s or kgm^2s^-3
35
equation for density
p= m/v ---> density= mass/volume
36
equation for force
F=ma ---> mass x acceleration or F = chane in mass x velocity / change in time
37
equation for energy
W = F x d ---> force x distance
38
equation for work
Ek = 1/2 x m x v^2 ---> 0.5 x mass x velocity^2
39
equation for power
P= E/t ---> energy / time
40
define scalar
Has no direction only magnitude, size but no direction
41
define vector
Has direction and magnitude, rate or change with a direction
42
define magnitude
amount of a quantity
43
3 examples of a vector
Velocity, Acceleration, Weight
44
5 examoles of a scalar
Temp, speed, mass, distance, time
45
define dispacement
directly from start to finish but direction can always go off course at a longer route
46
define instantaneous speed
speed of (eg. car) over short period of time
