Here are some common WAEC physics formulas: Mechanics Velocity*: v = d/t (velocity = distance / time) Acceleration*: a = (v - u) / t (acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time) Distance (uniform acceleration)*: s = ut + (1/2)at² (distance = initial velocity × time + one-half × acceleration × time squared) Distance (uniform acceleration)*: v² = u² + 2as (final velocity squared = initial velocity squared + 2 × acceleration × distance) Force*: F = ma (Force = mass × acceleration) Momentum*: p = mv (momentum = mass × velocity) Impulse*: F = m(v - u) (Impulse = change in momentum) Work*: W = Fd (Work = Force × distance) Energy (Kinetic)*: KE = (1/2)mv² (Kinetic Energy = one-half × mass × velocity squared) Energy (Potential)*: PE = mgh (Potential Energy = mass × gravity × height) Power*: P = W/t (Power = Work / time) Density*: ρ = m/V (density = mass / volume) Pressure*: P = F/A (Pressure = Force / Area) Heat Specific Heat Capacity*: Q = mcθ (Heat = mass × specific heat capacity × temperature change) Latent Heat*: Q = mL (Heat = mass × specific latent heat) Waves Wave Speed*: v = fλ (Wave speed = frequency × wavelength) Electricity Current*: I = Q/t (Current = charge / time) Ohm's Law*: V = IR (Voltage = Current × Resistance) Resistance in Series*: R_total = R₁ + R₂ + ... Resistance in Parallel*: (1/R_total) = (1/R₁) + (1/R₂) + ... Power*: P = VI = I²R = V²/R (Power = Voltage × Current = Current squared × Resistance = Voltage squared / Resistance) Charge*: Q = ne (Charge = number of electrons × elementary charge) Modern Physics Energy of a Photon*: E = hf (Energy = Planck's constant × frequency) Send me the next one 📸
