Cover -- Title page -- Dedication -- Stress =Force/Area -- Weight = Mass x Gravity -- Impulse = Force x Time -- Newton's First Law of Motion:In the absence of a net force, a body isat rest or moves in a straight line withconstant speed. -- Refraction:The change in direction of a wave dueto a change of speed. -- Earth's gravity = 9.81 m/sec2 -- Newton's Second Law of Motion:Force equals Mass x Acceleration(F = ma). -- Pascal's Principle:Pressure exerted anywhere in aconfined fluid is transmitted equally inall directions throughout the fluid. -- Any object, wholly or partiallyimmersed in fluid, is buoyed up by aforce equal to the weight of the fluiddisplaced by the object.(Archimedes of Syracuse) -- Newton's Law ofUniversal Gravitation:Every particle in the universe attractsevery other particle with a forcewhich is directly proportional to theproduct of their masses and inverselyproportional to the square of thedistance between them. -- The de Brogli Hypothesis:All matter, including light,has a wave-like nature. -- Wavelength is determined by velocitydivided by frequency ( l = v/ƒ). -- Kepler's First Law:The orbit of every planet is an ellipsewith the sun at a focus. -- Hooke's Law:The extension of an elastic spring islinearly proportional to its tension(F = kx). -- Ohm's Law:The current between two points isproportional to voltage and inverselyproportional to the resistance betweenthem (R = V/I). -- Newton's Third Law of Motion:For every action, there is an equal,opposite reaction. -- Einstein's Theory of Relativity:E = mc2 -- Momentum = Mass x Velocity -- Energy cannot be created or destroyed,only changed from one type to another. -- Acknowledgements -- About the author -- Copyright Page.
