  2. Sources and sinks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sources_and_sinks

    From left to right: a field with a source, a field with a sink, a field without either. In the physical sciences, engineering and mathematics, sources and sinks is an analogy used to describe properties of vector fields. It generalizes the idea of fluid sources and sinks (like the faucet and drain of a bathtub) across different scientific ...

  3. Source–sink dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Source–sink_dynamics

    Source–sink dynamics is a theoretical model used by ecologists to describe how variation in habitat quality may affect the population growth or decline of organisms.. Since quality is likely to vary among patches of habitat, it is important to consider how a low quality patch might affect a population.

  4. AP Physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics

    AP Physics C: Mechanics and AP Physics 1 are both introductory college-level courses in mechanics, with the former recognized by more universities. [1] The AP Physics C: Mechanics exam includes a combination of conceptual questions, algebra-based questions, and calculus-based questions, while the AP Physics 1 exam includes only conceptual and algebra-based questions.

  5. Field line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field_line

    [1] [2] A diagram showing a representative set of neighboring field lines is a common way of depicting a vector field in scientific and mathematical literature; this is called a field line diagram. They are used to show electric fields , magnetic fields , and gravitational fields among many other types.

  6. Autonomous system (mathematics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autonomous_system...

    Stability generally increases to the left of the diagram. [1] Some sink, source or node are equilibrium points . 2-dimensional case refers to Phase plane . In mathematics , an autonomous system or autonomous differential equation is a system of ordinary differential equations which does not explicitly depend on the independent variable .

  7. Sink - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sink

    A butler's sink is a rectangular ceramic sink with a rounded rim which is set into a work surface. [5] There are generally two kinds of butler's sinks: the London sink and the Belfast sink. [ 5 ] In 2006, both types of sinks usually were 61 centimetres (24 in) across and 46 centimetres (18 in) front-to-back, with a depth of 22.5 centimetres (8. ...

  8. AP Physics 1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AP_Physics_1

    AP Physics 1 is an algebra-based, introductory college-level physics course that includes mechanics topics such as motion, fluids, force, momentum, energy, harmonic motion, and rotation. The College Board published a curriculum framework that includes eight big ideas on which AP Physics 1 is based.

  9. Free body diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_body_diagram

    In physics and engineering, a free body diagram (FBD; also called a force diagram) [1] is a graphical illustration used to visualize the applied forces, moments, and resulting reactions on a free body in a given condition. It depicts a body or connected bodies with all the applied forces and moments, and reactions, which act on the body(ies).
