  2. Acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration

    Acceleration has the dimensions of velocity (L/T) divided by time, i.e. L T −2. The SI unit of acceleration is the metre per second squared (m s −2); or "metre per second per second", as the velocity in metres per second changes by the acceleration value, every second.

  3. Tsiolkovsky rocket equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsiolkovsky_rocket_equation

    A rocket's required mass ratio as a function of effective exhaust velocity ratio. The classical rocket equation, or ideal rocket equation is a mathematical equation that describes the motion of vehicles that follow the basic principle of a rocket: a device that can apply acceleration to itself using thrust by expelling part of its mass with high velocity and can thereby move due to the ...

  4. Gravitational acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_acceleration

    In physics, gravitational acceleration is the acceleration of an object in free fall within a vacuum (and thus without experiencing drag). ... 2.6 (approx.) 15.8 s:

  5. g-force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-force

    Acceleration of a nematocyst: the fastest recorded acceleration from any biological entity. [42] 5,410,000 g: Mean acceleration of a proton in the Large Hadron Collider [43] 190,000,000 g: Gravitational acceleration at the surface of a typical neutron star [44] 2.0 × 10 11 g: Acceleration from a wakefield plasma accelerator [45] 8.9 × 10 20 g

[9] In the following two years, Quizlet reached its 1,000,000th registered user. [10] Until 2011, Quizlet shared staff and financial resources with the Collectors Weekly website. [11]

  7. Gifted education - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gifted_education

    Levels 1 & 2 are recognised as being school-based whilst Level 3 is the responsibility of the HKAGE. The intention is that Level 1 serves the entire school population, irrespective of ability, that Level 2 deals with between 2–10% of the ability group, and that Level 3 caters for the top 2% of students. Level 1: A.

  8. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Design standards for high-speed rail vary from 0.2 m/s 3 to 0.6 m/s 3. [4] Track transition curves limit the jerk when transitioning from a straight line to a curve, or vice versa. Recall that in constant-speed motion along an arc, acceleration is zero in the tangential direction and nonzero in the inward normal direction.

  9. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.
