  2. Torricelli's equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torricelli's_equation

    In physics, Torricelli's equation, or Torricelli's formula, is an equation created by Evangelista Torricelli to find the final velocity of a moving object with constant acceleration along an axis (for example, the x axis) without having a known time interval. The equation itself is: [1] = + where is the object's final velocity along the x axis ...

  3. Gravitational acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_acceleration

    The gravitational acceleration vector depends only on how massive the field source is and on the distance 'r' to the sample mass . It does not depend on the magnitude of the small sample mass. This model represents the "far-field" gravitational acceleration associated with a massive body.

  4. Acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration

    By the fundamental theorem of calculus, it can be seen that the integral of the acceleration function a(t) is the velocity function v(t); that is, the area under the curve of an acceleration vs. time (a vs. t) graph corresponds to the change of velocity.

  5. Kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics

    The formula for the acceleration A P can now be obtained as: = ˙ + + (), or = / + / +, where α is the angular acceleration vector obtained from the derivative of the angular velocity vector; / =, is the relative position vector (the position of P relative to the origin O of the moving frame M); and = ¨ is the acceleration of the origin of ...

  6. Theoretical gravity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theoretical_gravity

    For example, the equation above gives the acceleration at 9.820 m/s 2, when GM = 3.986 × 10 14 m 3 /s 2, and R = 6.371 × 10 6 m. The centripetal radius is r = R cos( φ ) , and the centripetal time unit is approximately ( day / 2 π ), reduces this, for r = 5 × 10 6 metres, to 9.79379 m/s 2 , which is closer to the observed value.

  7. Formula editor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Formula_editor

    A formula editor is a computer program that is used to typeset mathematical formulas and mathematical expressions. Formula editors typically serve two purposes: They allow word processing and publication of technical content either for print publication, or to generate raster images for web pages or screen presentations.

  8. Equations for a falling body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_for_a_falling_body

    A set of equations describing the trajectories of objects subject to a constant gravitational force under normal Earth-bound conditions.Assuming constant acceleration g due to Earth's gravity, Newton's law of universal gravitation simplifies to F = mg, where F is the force exerted on a mass m by the Earth's gravitational field of strength g.
