A transformer is a device used to increase or decrease the voltage of an alternating current supply.

The potential energy of an object at height h is given by mgh, where m is mass, g is acceleration

due to gravity, and h is height.

The first law of thermodynamics states that the change in internal energy of a system is equal to the

heat added minus the work done by the system.

The speed of light in a vacuum is approximately 299,792,458 meters per second.

Momentum is the product of mass and velocity and is conserved in an isolated system.

The force of gravity between two objects is proportional to the product of their masses and inversely

proportional to the square of the distance between them.

Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; it can only be transformed from one form to another.

An electric current is the flow of electric charge, typically measured in amperes.

Newton's first law states that an object in motion stays in motion unless acted upon by an external

force.

Work is defined as the force applied to an object times the distance it moves in the direction of the

force.
