A request for a physics equation map or flowchart to simplify problem-solving is discussed, highlighting the desire for a visual tool to trace relationships between concepts like distance, velocity, and acceleration. The conversation acknowledges that while such a tool could be helpful, many physics tasks are more complex than the straightforward differentiation and integration suggested. The user seeks a structured approach to navigate physics equations effectively. The discussion emphasizes the need for clarity in understanding the connections between different physical quantities. Overall, the idea of a physics equation map remains appealing but is recognized as potentially oversimplified for many real-world applications.

Physics equation map?

Does anyone know if there is some sort of 'map' or flowchart available whereby you can use the information you have and trace your way through directions to get another result eg.

start at

distance/time ==Differentiate=> velocity =differentiate=> Acceleration
-------------<===Integrate=== -------- <=Integrate= ------------

with other branches for other things.

Thread 'Does acceleration affect impact energy vs constant velocity?'

I do not have a good working knowledge of physics yet. I tried to piece this together but after researching this, I couldn’t figure out the correct laws of physics to combine to develop a formula to answer this question. Ex. 1 - A moving object impacts a static object at a constant velocity. Ex. 2 - A moving object impacts a static object at the same velocity but is accelerating at the moment of impact. Assuming the mass of the objects is the same and the velocity at the moment of impact...
