Most students fear physics due to its complex numerical problems. But if students become familiar with the physics formulas, the subject can be a lot more interesting. Remembering all the physics formulas can get hard. Keeping this in mind, we have created a comprehensive list of all class 10 physics formulas. These formulas are the most used and commonly occurring in Physics. These physics formulas will not only help class 10 students to prepare for their class 10 board exams but also in their later stages when they set out to prepare for competitive medical and engineering entrance exams like NEET and JEE.

Reflection of Light
Laws of Reflection
- Incident ray, reflected ray, and normal at the point of incidence lie in the same plane.
- The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection i.e., ∠i=∠r
Reflection from a Plane Mirror
- The image is virtual. The image and the object are equidistant from the mirror.
- The object size is equal to the image size i.e., magnification is 1.
Reflection from a Spherical Mirror
- New cartesian sign convention (i) the distances are measured from the pole P (ii) the distances in the direction of incident ray are positive.
- Focal length is equal to half of radius of curvature i.e., f=R/2.
- The object distance u, image distance v and focal length f are related by the mirror formula:
4. The magnification is the ratio of image height to the object height and it is given by

Refractive Index
Laws of Refraction
- Incident ray, refracted ray, and normal at the point of incidence lie in the same plane.
- The angle of incidence is related to the angle of refraction by Snell’s Law:
