This introductory, algebra-based, two-semester college physics book is grounded with real-world examples, illustrations, and explanations to help students grasp key, fundamental physics concepts.
26 kwi 2009 · The equation E=v/d shows that energy is directly proportional to velocity and inversely proportional to distance. This means that as an object's velocity increases, its energy also increases. On the other hand, as an object travels a greater distance, its energy decreases.
27 sty 2006 · The electric potential, V, is a scalar quantity. That is, it has a magnitude at a particular point in space, but no direction associated with it. But the electric field, E, is a vector quantity. This means it has both a magnitude and a direction.

ΔU = qΔV. Voltage is not the same as energy. Voltage is the energy per unit charge. Thus, a motorcycle battery and a car battery can both have the same voltage (more precisely, the same potential difference between battery terminals), yet one stores much more energy than the other because ΔU = qΔV.
Review 1.1 Physics: An Introduction for your test on Unit 1 – The Nature of Science and Physics.
Motion in one dimension (1D) In this chapter, we study speed, velocity, and acceleration for motion in one-dimension. One dimensional motion is motion along a straight line, like the motion of a glider on an airtrack.
