  2. Rotating reference frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_reference_frame

    Then, by taking time derivatives, formulas are derived that relate the velocity of the particle as seen in the two frames, and the acceleration relative to each frame. Using these accelerations, the fictitious forces are identified by comparing Newton's second law as formulated in the two different frames.

  3. Motion graphs and derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_graphs_and_derivatives

    Since the velocity of the object is the derivative of the position graph, the area under the line in the velocity vs. time graph is the displacement of the object. (Velocity is on the y-axis and time on the x-axis. Multiplying the velocity by the time, the time cancels out, and only displacement remains.)

  4. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    Trajectory of a particle with initial position vector r 0 and velocity v 0, subject to constant acceleration a, all three quantities in any direction, and the position r(t) and velocity v(t) after time t. The initial position, initial velocity, and acceleration vectors need not be collinear, and the equations of motion take an almost identical ...

  5. Piston motion equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_motion_equations

    From the foregoing, you can see that the time domain equations are simply scaled forms of the angle domain equations: is unscaled, ′ is scaled by ω, and ″ is scaled by ω². To convert the angle domain equations to time domain, first replace A with ωt , and then scale for angular velocity as follows: multiply x ′ {\displaystyle x'} by ...

  6. Time derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_derivative

    A large number of fundamental equations in physics involve first or second time derivatives of quantities. Many other fundamental quantities in science are time derivatives of one another: force is the time derivative of momentum; power is the time derivative of energy; electric current is the time derivative of electric charge; and so on.

  7. Displacement (geometry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_(geometry)

    In considering motions of objects over time, the instantaneous velocity of the object is the rate of change of the displacement as a function of time. The instantaneous speed, then, is distinct from velocity, or the time rate of change of the distance travelled along a specific path. The velocity may be equivalently defined as the time rate of ...

  8. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerk_(physics)

    Timing diagram over one revolution for angle, angular velocity, angular acceleration, and angular jerk. Consider a rigid body rotating about a fixed axis in an inertial reference frame. If its angular position as a function of time is θ(t), the angular velocity, acceleration, and jerk can be expressed as follows:

  9. Coordinate time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_time

    Equation is a fundamental and much-quoted differential equation for the relation between proper time and coordinate time, i.e. for time dilation. A derivation, starting from the Schwarzschild metric, with further reference sources, is given in Time dilation § Combined effect of velocity and gravitational time dilation.
