  2. Accelerator physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerator_physics

    Accelerator physics is a branch of applied physics, concerned with designing, building and operating particle accelerators.As such, it can be described as the study of motion, manipulation and observation of relativistic charged particle beams and their interaction with accelerator structures by electromagnetic fields.

  3. Science fair - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_fair

    A science fair or engineering fair is an event hosted by a school that offers students the opportunity to experience the practices of science and engineering for themselves. In the United States, the Next Generation Science Standards makes experiencing the practices of science and engineering one of the three pillars of science education.

  4. Acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration

    The acceleration of a falling body in the absence of resistances to motion is dependent only on the gravitational field strength g (also called acceleration due to gravity). By Newton's Second Law the force F g {\displaystyle \mathbf {F_{g}} } acting on a body is given by: F g = m g . {\displaystyle \mathbf {F_{g}} =m\mathbf {g} .}

  5. Motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion

    This motion is the most obscure as it is not physical motion, but rather a change in the very nature of the universe. The primary source of verification of this expansion was provided by Edwin Hubble who demonstrated that all galaxies and distant astronomical objects were moving away from Earth, known as Hubble's law , predicted by a universal ...

    Acceleration – In physics, acceleration is the rate of change of velocity of an object with respect to time. An object's acceleration is the net result of any and all forces acting on the object, as described by Newton's Second Law. [4] The SI unit for acceleration is metre per second squared (m s −2).

  8. Mean speed theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_speed_theorem

    Galileo's demonstration of the law of the space traversed in case of uniformly varied motion. It is the same demonstration that Oresme had made centuries earlier. The mean speed theorem , also known as the Merton rule of uniform acceleration , [ 1 ] was discovered in the 14th century by the Oxford Calculators of Merton College , and was proved ...

  9. Hyperbolic motion (relativity) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperbolic_motion_(relativity)

    Hyperbolic motion is the motion of an object with constant proper acceleration in special relativity. It is called hyperbolic motion because the equation describing the path of the object through spacetime is a hyperbola , as can be seen when graphed on a Minkowski diagram whose coordinates represent a suitable inertial (non-accelerated) frame.
