1. Speed, Distance and Time | 速度、距离与时间
Average speed is the distance travelled divided by the time taken. The formula triangle helps rearrange the three quantities.
平均速度等于移动距离除以所用时间。利用公式三角形可以灵活变换三个物理量。
Average Speed = Total Distance ÷ Total Time
平均速度 = 总距离 ÷ 总时间
v = s ÷ t, s = v × t, t = s ÷ v
v = s ÷ t, s = v × t, t = s ÷ v
Units: speed in m/s, distance in m, time in s. Always check unit consistency before calculating.
单位:速度 m/s,距离 m,时间 s。计算前务必保持单位一致。
2. Acceleration | 加速度
Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity. If the direction or speed of a moving object changes, it accelerates.
加速度是速度的变化率。物体运动方向或速率发生变化时,就具有加速度。
Acceleration = Change in Velocity ÷ Time Taken
加速度 = 速度变化量 ÷ 所用时间
a = (v - u) ÷ t
a = (v - u) ÷ t
v is final velocity, u is initial velocity. Unit: m/s².
v 是末速度,u 是初速度。单位:m/s²。
Negative acceleration (deceleration) occurs when v is smaller than u.
当 v 小于 u 时,加速度为负值(减速)。
3. Forces and Newton's Laws | 力与牛顿定律
Newton's Second Law is the foundation of dynamics. An unbalanced force produces an acceleration proportional to the force and inversely proportional to the mass.
牛顿第二定律是动力学的基础。不平衡的力产生的加速度与力成正比,与质量成反比。
Resultant Force = Mass × Acceleration (F = m × a)
合力 = 质量 × 加速度 (F = m × a)
First Law: An object stays at rest or moves with constant velocity unless a resultant force acts.
第一定律:若无合力作用,物体保持静止或匀速直线运动。
Third Law: When body A exerts a force on body B, body B exerts an equal and opposite force on body A.
第三定律:作用力与反作用力大小相等、方向相反,分别作用在不同物体上。
Weight = Mass × Gravitational Field Strength (W = m × g). g ≈ 10 N/kg on Earth.
重量 = 质量 × 重力场强度 (W = m × g)。地球上 g≈10 N/kg。
4. Pressure | 压强
Pressure quantifies how concentrated a force is. The same force spread over a larger area produces lower pressure.
压强衡量力的集中程度。同样大小的力分散在更大面积上,产生的压强更小。
Pressure = Force ÷ Area (P = F ÷ A)
压强 = 力 ÷ 面积 (P = F ÷ A)
Unit: pascal (Pa). 1 Pa = 1 N/m².
单位:帕斯卡 (Pa)。1 Pa = 1 N/m²。
In liquids: Pressure increases with depth, and is equal at the same horizontal level regardless of container shape.
液体压强随深度增大,同种液体同一水平面上压强处处相等,与容器形状无关。
5. Density | 密度
Density describes how much mass is packed into a given volume. It is an intrinsic property of materials.
密度描述单位体积所包含的质量,是物质的固有属性。
Density = Mass ÷ Volume (ρ = m ÷ V)
密度 = 质量 ÷ 体积 (ρ = m ÷ V)
Unit: kg/m³ or g/cm³. 1 g/cm³ = 1000 kg/m³.
单位:kg/m³ 或 g/cm³。1 g/cm³ = 1000 kg/m³。
An object floats if its average density is less than that of the fluid; it sinks if greater.
物体平均密度小于液体密度时上浮,大于时下沉。
6. Energy, Work and Power | 能量、功和功率
When a force moves an object, work is done and energy is transferred. Power tells us how quickly that transfer happens.
力使物体移动时,就做了功,能量发生转移。功率表示能量转移的快慢。
Work Done = Force × Distance moved in direction of force (W = F × d)
做功 = 力 × 在力的方向上移动的距离 (W = F × d)
Power = Work Done ÷ Time Taken (P = W ÷ t)
功率 = 做功 ÷ 所用时间 (P = W ÷ t)
Kinetic Energy = ½ × m × v². Gravitational Potential Energy = m × g × h.
动能 = ½ × m × v²。重力势能 = m × g × h。
Energy is measured in joules (J), power in watts (W). 1 W = 1 J/s.
能量单位焦耳 (J),功率单位瓦特 (W)。1 W = 1 J/s。
Principle of Conservation of Energy: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed.
能量守恒定律:能量既不能凭空产生,也不能凭空消失,只能转移或转化。
7. Electrical Circuits | 电路
Electric current, potential difference and resistance are linked by Ohm's Law. Charge, voltage and energy relationships complete the picture.
电流、电压和电阻由欧姆定律联系。电荷、电压与能量的关系构成完整电路知识。
Current = Charge ÷ Time (I = Q ÷ t)
电流 = 电荷 ÷ 时间 (I = Q ÷ t)
Voltage = Energy Transferred ÷ Charge (V = E ÷ Q)
电压 = 转移能量 ÷ 电荷 (V = E ÷ Q)
Resistance = Voltage ÷ Current (R = V ÷ I)
电阻 = 电压 ÷ 电流 (R = V ÷ I)
ircuits: Current is the same everywhere; total resistance = sum of individual resistances.
串联电路:电流处处相等;总电阻等于各电阻之和。
circuits: Voltage is the same across each branch; total current = sum of branch currents.
并联电路:各支路电压相同;总电流等于各支路电流之和。
8. Wave Properties | 波的性质
Waves transfer energy without transferring matter. The speed, frequency and wavelength of any wave are linked by a simple equation.
波传递能量但不传递物质。波速、频率和波长由一个简单方程联系在一起。
Wave Speed = Frequency × Wavelength (v = f × λ)
波速 = 频率 × 波长 (v = f × λ)
Frequency (f) in hertz (Hz), wavelength (λ) in m, speed (v) in m/s.
频率 (f) 单位 Hz,波长 (λ) 单位 m,波速 (v) 单位 m/s。
Transverse waves: oscillations perpendicular to wave direction (light, water waves). Longitudinal waves: oscillations parallel to direction (sound).
横波:振动方向与传播方向垂直(如光波、水波)。纵波:振动方向与传播方向平行(如声波)。
9. Thermal Energy and States of Matter | 热能及物质状态
Heating a substance can change its internal energy and eventually its state. Latent heat is absorbed or released without temperature change during a change of state.
加热物体可改变其内能,最终改变物态。物态变化过程中,吸收或释放潜热而温度保持不变。
Change in Thermal Energy = Mass × Specific Heat Capacity × Temperature Change
热能变化 = 质量 × 比热容 × 温度变化 (ΔE = m × c × Δθ)
Energy to change state = Mass × Specific Latent Heat
物态变化所需能量 = 质量 × 比潜热 (E = m × L)
During melting or boiling, temperature remains constant while energy continues to be supplied.
熔化或沸腾期间,虽持续供热,温度保持恒定。
Conduction, convection and radiation are three methods of thermal energy transfer. Radiation does not require a medium.
热传导、热对流和热辐射是三种热能传递方式。热辐射不需要介质。
10. Light: Reflection and Refraction | 光的反射与折射
Light obeys exact geometric laws when it strikes a surface or crosses into a new medium. These laws are the basis for image formation and lenses.
光遇到界面或进入新介质时严格遵循几何定律,这是成像和透镜工作的基础。
Law of Reflection: Angle of incidence (i) = Angle of reflection (r)
反射定律:入射角 = 反射角
Snell's Law for Refraction: n₁ × sin θ₁ = n₂ × sin θ₂
折射定律(斯涅尔定律):n₁ × sin θ₁ = n₂ × sin θ₂
When light enters a denser medium, it bends towards the normal; when it enters a less dense medium, it bends away from the normal.
光进入更密介质时向法线偏折;进入更疏介质时偏离法线。
Critical angle and total internal reflection occur when light travels from denser to less dense medium and the angle of incidence exceeds the critical angle.
光从光密介质射向光疏介质,入射角大于临界角时发生全内反射。
