Are the formulas given to you for the physics questions on the TEAS V?

when i took the TEAS, there were physics questions, but there weren't any that involve formulas, like KE=1/2MV^2. But then, again, I do not know if all TEAS version 5 are the same or not.
However, they ask questions about KE and PE, similar to the examples in the TEAS book. For example, if a penny is dropped from a building, is it KE, PE, or PE turning into KE, etc...

I personally did not get any questions about physics, other than a basic question regarding mass (even then, I think it was more based on chemistry than physics...).
Obviously, this will depend on which test you ultimately get, but I doubt they will expect you to know any exceptionally "difficult" equations.
I just reviewed my TEAS book and you know what? This isn't related to physics, but it's related to chemistry. There are 2 equations that you should know: Saturated hydrocarbons (CnH2n+2) and unsaturated hydrocarbons (CnH2n). Review this section in your TEAS book for more info, it's under the "Chemical Bonds Between Atoms in Common Molecules."

Any physics questions you might encounter on TEAS are only going to ask you for definitions of variables in an equation, or identify a relationship between specific variables.
I didn't encounter any physics questions/problems on my TEAS V test. The majority of the questions were geared towards chemistry, biology and physiology.
