Lecture Notes on Formulas

Introduction to Formulas

• Definition: A formula is a rule or equation that helps to work something out.
• Common Usage: Often used in science and mathematics.

Example of Speed Formula

• Formula: ( s = \frac{d}{t} )
  • ( s ) = speed
  • ( d ) = distance
  • ( t ) = time
• Example Calculation:
  • Problem: Calculate the speed of a vehicle that traveled 80 meters in 10 seconds.
  • Solution: ( s = \frac{80}{10} = 8 ) meters per second

Example of Temperature Conversion Formula

• Formula: ( F = \frac{9}{5}C + 32 )
  • ( F ) = temperature in Fahrenheit
  • ( C ) = temperature in Celsius
• Example Calculation:
  • Problem: Convert 15 degrees Celsius to Fahrenheit.
  • Solution: ( F = \frac{9}{5} \times 15 + 32 = 27 + 32 = 59 )
  • Result: 15°C is equivalent to 59°F.

Units of Temperature

• Celsius: Mainly used in Europe.
• Fahrenheit: More common in America.

Other Common Formulas (Overview)

• Density
• Kinetic Energy
• Acceleration
• Conversion between Kilometers and Miles

Conclusion

• Summary: Formulas are tools for solving mathematical and scientific problems.
