  2. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    Newton's laws of motion are three physical laws that describe the relationship between the motion of an object and the forces acting on it. These laws, which provide the basis for Newtonian mechanics, can be paraphrased as follows: A body remains at rest, or in motion at a constant speed in a straight line, except insofar as it is acted upon by ...

  3. Degrees of freedom (mechanics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom_(mechanics)

    When motion involving large displacements is the main objective of study (e.g. for analyzing the motion of satellites), a deformable body may be approximated as a rigid body (or even a particle) in order to simplify the analysis. The degree of freedom of a system can be viewed as the minimum number of coordinates required to specify a ...

    Symmetry elements of formaldehyde. C 2 is a two-fold rotation axis. σ v and σ v ' are two non-equivalent reflection planes.. In chemistry, molecular symmetry describes the symmetry present in molecules and the classification of these molecules according to their symmetry.

  5. Degrees of freedom (physics and chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Degrees_of_freedom_(physics...

    In physics and chemistry, a degree of freedom is an independent physical parameter in the chosen parameterization of a physical system.More formally, given a parameterization of a physical system, the number of degrees of freedom is the smallest number of parameters whose values need to be known in order to always be possible to determine the values of all parameters in the chosen ...

  6. Three-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-body_problem

    While a system of 3 bodies interacting gravitationally is chaotic, a system of 3 bodies interacting elastically is not. [clarification needed] There is no general closed-form solution to the three-body problem. [1] In other words, it does not have a general solution that can be expressed in terms of a finite number of standard mathematical ...

  8. Crystal structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_structure

    Vectors and planes in a crystal lattice are described by the three-value Miller index notation. This syntax uses the indices h, k, and â„“ as directional parameters. [4] By definition, the syntax (hkâ„“) denotes a plane that intercepts the three points a 1 /h, a 2 /k, and a 3 /â„“, or some multiple thereof. That is, the Miller indices are ...
