  2. Linguistic frame of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_frame_of_reference

    Linguistic frame of reference is a frame of reference as it is expressed in a language. A frame of reference is a coordinate system used to identify the physical location of an object. In languages, different frames of reference can be used. They are: the relative frame of reference, the intrinsic frame of reference, and the absolute frame of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Frames_of_reference

    In physics, a frame of reference is often a useful way of defining a particular state of motion, the expected properties of a set of objects with a common state of motion, or how physics may appear to an observer with a state of motion. It is usually used to define a coordinate system that can be used as a reference for measurements and ...

  4. Fictitious force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fictitious_force

    The surface of the Earth is a rotating reference frame. To solve classical mechanics problems exactly in an Earthbound reference frame, three fictitious forces must be introduced: the Coriolis force, the centrifugal force (described below) and the Euler force. The Euler force is typically ignored because the variations in the angular velocity ...

  5. Transformative learning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformative_learning

    An important part of transformative learning is for individuals to change their frames of reference by critically reflecting on their assumptions and beliefs and consciously making and implementing plans that bring about new ways of defining their worlds. This process is fundamentally rational and analytical. [5] [6]

  6. Frame of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frame_of_reference

    An observational frame of reference, often referred to as a physical frame of reference, a frame of reference, or simply a frame, is a physical concept related to an observer and the observer's state of motion. Here we adopt the view expressed by Kumar and Barve: an observational frame of reference is characterized only by its state of motion. [19]

  7. Syntactic bootstrapping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntactic_bootstrapping

    In his example, the string "John hit the chair" can have "John" deduced as the subject by a child, as a "chair" is unlikely to "hit" (rare (extraneous) examples include "I was hit by a car"). After several of these strings with the verb "hit," the child observes that inanimate objects, unlikely to possess the ability to "hit," consistently ...

  8. Reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reference

    In art, a reference is an item from which a work is based. This may include: an existing artwork; a reproduction (i.e., a photo) a directly observed object (e.g., a person) the artist's memory; Another example of reference is samples of various musical works being incorporated into a new one.

    Frames of Reference is a 1960 black-and-white educational film directed by Richard Leacock, written and presented by Patterson Hume and Donald Ivey, and produced for the Physical Science Study Committee. [1] A recording of this audio was utilized in the Bluecoats Drum and Bugle Corps 2015 show, Kinetic Noise.
