  2. Acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration

    The magnitude of an object's acceleration, as described by Newton's Second Law, [3] is the combined effect of two causes: the net balance of all external forces acting onto that object — magnitude is directly proportional to this net resulting force;

  3. Autoacceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autoacceleration

    Autoacceleration of the overall rate of a free-radical polymerization system has been noted in many bulk polymerization systems. The polymerization of methyl methacrylate, for example, deviates strongly from classical mechanism behavior around 20% conversion; in this region the conversion and molecular mass of the polymer produced increases rapidly.

  4. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerk_(physics)

    Discontinuities in acceleration do not occur in real-world environments because of deformation, quantum mechanics effects, and other causes. However, a jump-discontinuity in acceleration and, accordingly, unbounded jerk are feasible in an idealized setting, such as an idealized point mass moving along a piecewise smooth, whole continuous path ...

  5. Accelerator physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerator_physics

    Accelerator physics is a branch of applied physics, concerned with designing, building and operating particle accelerators.As such, it can be described as the study of motion, manipulation and observation of relativistic charged particle beams and their interaction with accelerator structures by electromagnetic fields.

  6. Gravitational acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_acceleration

    At a fixed point on the surface, the magnitude of Earth's gravity results from combined effect of gravitation and the centrifugal force from Earth's rotation. [2] [3] At different points on Earth's surface, the free fall acceleration ranges from 9.764 to 9.834 m/s 2 (32.03 to 32.26 ft/s 2), [4] depending on altitude, latitude, and longitude.

  7. Proper acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_acceleration

    In relativity theory, proper acceleration [1] is the physical acceleration (i.e., measurable acceleration as by an accelerometer) experienced by an object. It is thus acceleration relative to a free-fall, or inertial, observer who is momentarily at rest relative to the object being measured.

  9. Angular acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_acceleration

    In physics, angular acceleration (symbol α, alpha) is the time rate of change of angular velocity.Following the two types of angular velocity, spin angular velocity and orbital angular velocity, the respective types of angular acceleration are: spin angular acceleration, involving a rigid body about an axis of rotation intersecting the body's centroid; and orbital angular acceleration ...
