  2. Function composition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_composition

    The functions g and f are said to commute with each other if gf = fg. Commutativity is a special property, attained only by particular functions, and often in special circumstances. For example, | x | + 3 = | x + 3 | only when x ≥ 0. The picture shows another example. The composition of one-to-one (injective) functions is always one ...

  3. Newton's law of universal gravitation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_law_of_universal...

    where F is the gravitational force acting between two objects, m 1 and m 2 are the masses of the objects, r is the distance between the centers of their masses, and G is the gravitational constant. The first test of Newton's law of gravitation between masses in the laboratory was the Cavendish experiment conducted by the British scientist Henry ...

  4. Gravitational acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_acceleration

    The formula is: F = G m 1 m 2 r 2 {\displaystyle F=G{\frac {m_{1}m_{2}}{r^{2}}}\ } where m 1 {\displaystyle m_{1}} and m 2 {\displaystyle m_{2}} are any two masses, G {\displaystyle G} is the gravitational constant , and r {\displaystyle r} is the distance between the two point-like masses.

  5. Gravitational constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitational_constant

    The gravitational constant G is a key quantity in Newton's law of universal gravitation.. The gravitational constant is an empirical physical constant involved in the calculation of gravitational effects in Sir Isaac Newton's law of universal gravitation and in Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity.

  6. Function (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Function_(mathematics)

    An extension of a function f is a function g such that f is a restriction of g. A typical use of this concept is the process of analytic continuation, that allows extending functions whose domain is a small part of the complex plane to functions whose domain is almost the whole complex plane.

  7. 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.

    5.2 g: Formula One car, maximum under heavy braking [28] 6.3 g: Tower Of Terror, highest g-force steel rollercoaster 6.3 g: Formula One car, peak lateral in turns [29] 6–6.5 g: Standard, full aerobatics certified glider +7/−5 g: Apollo 16 on reentry [30] 7.19 g: Maximum permitted g-force in Sukhoi Su-27 plane 9 g

  9. Gibbs free energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibbs_free_energy

    Its symbol is Δ f G˚. All elements in their standard states (diatomic oxygen gas, graphite, etc.) have standard Gibbs free energy change of formation equal to zero, as there is no change involved. Δ f G = Δ f G˚ + RT ln Q f, where Q f is the reaction quotient. At equilibrium, Δ f G = 0, and Q f = K, so the equation becomes Δ f G˚ = − ...
