  2. Angular mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_mechanics

    In physics, angular mechanics is a field of mechanics which studies rotational movement. It studies things such as angular momentum, angular velocity, and torque. It also studies more advanced things such as Coriolis force [1] and Angular aerodynamics. It is used in many fields such as toy making, aerospace engineering, and aviation.

  3. Piston motion equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_motion_equations

    For rod length 6" and crank radius 2" (as shown in the example graph below), numerically solving the acceleration zero-crossings finds the velocity maxima/minima to be at crank angles of ±73.17615°. Then, using the triangle law of sines, it is found that the rod-vertical angle is 18.60647° and the crank-rod angle is 88.21738°. Clearly, in ...

    If k 2 is greater than one, F 2 − F 1 is a negative number; thus, the added inverse-cube force is attractive, as observed in the green planet of Figures 14 and 9. By contrast, if k 2 is less than one, F 2 − F 1 is a positive number; the added inverse-cube force is repulsive , as observed in the green planet of Figures 5 and 10, and in ...

  5. Euler's equations (rigid body dynamics) - Wikipedia

    Also in some frames not tied to the body can it be possible to obtain such simple (diagonal tensor) equations for the rate of change of the angular momentum. Then ω must be the angular velocity for rotation of that frames axes instead of the rotation of the body. It is however still required that the chosen axes are still principal axes of ...

  7. Moment of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_of_inertia

    [4] [5] The moment of inertia also appears in momentum , kinetic energy , and in Newton's laws of motion for a rigid body as a physical parameter that combines its shape and mass. There is an interesting difference in the way moment of inertia appears in planar and spatial movement.

  8. Angular momentum coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_momentum_coupling

    In such a case the expectation value of neither l 1 nor l 2 is a constant of motion in general, but the expectation value of the total orbital angular momentum operator L = l 1 + l 2 is. Given the eigenstates of l 1 and l 2, the construction of eigenstates of L (which still is conserved) is the coupling of the angular momenta of electrons 1 and 2.

  9. Two-body problem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-body_problem

    [2] Let x 1 and x 2 be the vector positions of the two bodies, and m 1 and m 2 be their masses. The goal is to determine the trajectories x 1 (t) and x 2 (t) for all times t, given the initial positions x 1 (t = 0) and x 2 (t = 0) and the initial velocities v 1 (t = 0) and v 2 (t = 0). When applied to the two masses, Newton's second law states that
