Study Notes
Mole Calculations
- Mole Definition: A mole (mol) is a unit measuring the amount of substance. 1 mole contains (6.022 \times 10^{23}) entities (Avogadro's number).
- Molar Mass: The mass of one mole of a substance (g/mol), calculated from the atomic or molecular mass.
-
Calculating Moles:
- ( \text{Moles} = \frac{\text{mass (g)}}{\text{molar mass (g/mol)}} )
- ( \text{Mass} = \text{moles} \times \text{molar mass} )
- ( \text{Volume of gas at STP} = \text{moles} \times 22.4 , \text{L} )
Kinematics
- Definition: The branch of physics dealing with the motion of objects without considering the forces causing the motion.
-
Key Concepts:
- Displacement: Vector quantity representing the change in position.
- Distance: Scalar quantity representing the total path length traveled.
- Speed: Scalar quantity, defined as distance traveled per unit time.
- Velocity: Vector quantity, defined as displacement per unit time.
Motion Equations
-
Uniform Motion: Constant speed in a straight line.
- ( s = vt ) (where (s) = distance, (v) = speed, (t) = time)
-
Uniformly Accelerated Motion: Motion with constant acceleration.
- Key Equations:
- ( v = u + at ) (final velocity (v), initial velocity (u), acceleration (a), time (t))
- ( s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2 )
- ( v^2 = u^2 + 2as )
- ( s = \frac{(u + v)}{2} \times t )
- Key Equations:
-
Acceleration: Rate of change of velocity.
- ( a = \frac{v - u}{t} )
Vector Addition
-
Vector Definition: A quantity with both magnitude and direction.
-
Vector Addition:
- Head-to-Tail Method: Place the tail of one vector at the head of the other; the resultant vector is drawn from the tail of the first to the head of the last.
-
Component Method: Break vectors into their components (usually x and y), add components separately:
- ( R_x = A_x + B_x )
- ( R_y = A_y + B_y )
-
Resultant Vector: Magnitude and direction calculated using:
- ( R = \sqrt{R_x^2 + R_y^2} )
- ( \theta = \tan^{-1}(\frac{R_y}{R_x}) )
-
Properties of Vectors:
- Vectors can be added in any order (commutative property).
- The resultant vector may be found using the parallelogram law in two dimensions.
Mole Calculations
- A mole (mol) is a unit for quantifying substance amount, equivalent to (6.022 \times 10^{23}) entities, known as Avogadro's number.
- Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance, expressed in grams per mole (g/mol), derived from atomic or molecular mass.
- The calculation of moles can be performed using the formula ( \text{Moles} = \frac{\text{mass (g)}}{\text{molar mass (g/mol)}} ).
- To find mass, use ( \text{Mass} = \text{moles} \times \text{molar mass} ).
- At Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP), the volume of one mole of gas is (22.4 , \text{L}).
Kinematics
- Kinematics studies object motion without delving into the forces that cause it.
- Displacement is a vector quantity indicating the change in position, while distance is a scalar representing the total path traveled.
- Speed, a scalar quantity, is defined as the distance covered per time unit, whereas velocity is a vector indicating displacement per time unit.
Motion Equations
- In uniform motion, objects travel at a constant speed along a straight path, represented by the equation ( s = vt ).
- Uniformly accelerated motion occurs with a consistent acceleration, governed by several key equations:
- ( v = u + at ) relates final and initial velocities.
- ( s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2 ) calculates distance traveled under acceleration.
- ( v^2 = u^2 + 2as ) connects velocity, acceleration, and distance.
- ( s = \frac{(u + v)}{2} \times t ) determines distance using the average of initial and final velocities.
- Acceleration is the rate of change of velocity calculated with ( a = \frac{v - u}{t} ).
Vector Addition
- A vector is defined as having both magnitude and direction.
- The head-to-tail method for vector addition involves aligning one vector's tail to another's head to find the resultant vector from the first tail to the last head.
- The component method entails resolving vectors into their components (typically along x and y axes) and adding them individually:
- ( R_x = A_x + B_x ) for x-components.
- ( R_y = A_y + B_y ) for y-components.
- The resultant vector's magnitude and direction are computed using ( R = \sqrt{R_x^2 + R_y^2} ) and ( \theta = \tan^{-1}(\frac{R_y}{R_x}) ).
- The commutative property allows vectors to be added in any order, and the parallelogram law can be utilized for resultant calculations in two dimensions.
