CSEC Physics Formulas & Notes

1. Motion and Forces - Distance (s) = Speed (v) × Time (t) - Speed (v) = Distance / Time - Acceleration (a)
= (Final Velocity (v) - Initial Velocity (u)) / Time (t) - Force (F) = Mass (m) × Acceleration (a) - Weight (W)
= Mass (m) × Gravitational Acceleration (g) - Momentum (p) = Mass (m) × Velocity (v) - Newton’s
Second Law: F = ma

2. Energy and Work - Work Done (W) = Force × Distance × cos(θ) - Kinetic Energy (KE) = ½ × Mass ×
Velocity² - Potential Energy (PE) = Mass × Gravity × Height - Power (P) = Work Done / Time - Mechanical
Advantage (MA) = Load / Effort

3. Pressure and Density - Pressure (P) = Force / Area - Density (ρ) = Mass / Volume - Hydrostatic
Pressure: P = h × ρ × g

4. Waves and Sound - Wave Speed (v) = Frequency (f) × Wavelength (λ) - Frequency (f) = 1 / Time Period
(T) - Time Period (T) = 1 / Frequency - Sound Intensity & Decibel Levels: L = 10 log (I/I₀)

5. Electricity and Magnetism - Ohm’s Law: V = I × R - Electrical Power: P = V × I = I² × R = V² / R - Energy


(E) = Power × Time - Charge (Q) = Current × Time - Resistance in Series: R_total = R₁ + R₂ + R₃ + ... -
Resistance in Parallel: 1/R_total = 1/R₁ + 1/R₂ + 1/R₃ + ...

6. Light and Optics - Lens Formula: 1/f = 1/v - 1/u - Magnification (M) = Image Height / Object Height =
v / u - Refractive Index (n) = Speed of Light in Vacuum / Speed in Medium

7. Thermal Physics - Specific Heat Capacity: Q = m × c × ΔT - Latent Heat: Q = m × L - Ideal Gas Law: PV =
nRT

8. Circular Motion and Gravitation - Centripetal Force: F = (m × v²) / r - Gravitational Force: F = G × (m₁ ×
m₂) / r² - Acceleration due to Gravity (g) near Earth: g = G × M / r²

9. Modern Physics - Frequency and Energy of Photon: E = h × f - Photoelectric Effect: K.E_max = hf - φ

10. General Notes - Always include units with answers. - Draw clear diagrams where needed. - Show
working for calculations. - Use prefixes: kilo (k), centi (c), milli (m), micro (μ) as required. - Remember
significant figures and scientific notation.

This compilation includes all crucial CSEC Physics formulas and essential notes for quick revision.
