Formula Sheet

This document provides physics formulas for kinematics, dynamics, energy, momentum, collisions, rotational motion, harmonic motion, waves, and fluids. Key formulas include: - Kinematics: v = v0 + at, r = r0 + v0t + 1/2at2, v2 = v02 + 2a(x-x0) - Dynamics: Fnet = ma, F = mg, Fspring = -kΔx - Harmonic motion: x(t) = Acos(ωt + φ), ω2 = k/m - Waves: y(x,t) = Acos(kx - ωt), v = λ
