Mammoth Memory

physics electrical formula mnemonic 

Before an exam involving electrical formula, recall and write down this acronym/mnemonic. Go over it time and time again until it's clearly remembered. 

Up to now you have probably tried to memorise each formula one by one, but if you use this method you will never have to memorise a single electrical formula again. 

The acronym/mnemonic is:

For any electrical formula we have:

1. Energy (J) = Coulombs (Q) x Volts (V)

E = Q x V

2. Power (W) = Volts (V) x Amps (I) 

P = V x I

3. Coulombs (Q) = Amps (I) x Time (S) 

Q = I x T 

4. Energy (J) = Power (W) x Time (S) 

E = P x T

5. Volts (V) = Amps (I) x Resistance (Ω)

V = I x R
