KEY CONNECTIONS

Formulas

h=v_0t\pm\frac{gt^2}{2}h = v₀t ± gt²/2

h=\frac{v^2-v_0^2}{\pm 2g}h = (v² − v₀²) / (±2g)

h=\frac{v_0+v}{2}\,th = (v₀ + v)t / 2

p=\rho ghp = ρgh

V=ShV = Sh

NOTATION

h: Height - vertical distance from the selected level.
v_0: Initial speed - the speed of the body at the selected initial moment.
t: Time is a quantity characterizing the duration and sequence of events.
g: Gravity acceleration is the acceleration of a body under the influence of gravity without taking into account the resistance of the medium.
v: Velocity is the rate and direction of change of a body's position.
p: Pressure is the force per unit surface area.
\rho: Density is the mass of a substance per unit volume.
V: Volume is the size of the area of space occupied by a body.
S: Area is the size of a surface or cross section.
