  2. Velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity

    The average velocity of an object over a ... a constant velocity means motion in a straight line at a constant speed. For example, a car moving at a constant 20 ...

  3. Piston motion equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_motion_equations

    The angle domain equations above show that the motion of the piston (connected to rod and crank) is not simple harmonic motion, but is modified by the motion of the rod as it swings with the rotation of the crank.

  4. Mean piston speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_piston_speed

    The mean piston speed is the average speed of the piston in a reciprocating engine. It is a function of stroke and RPM. There is a factor of 2 in the equation to account for one stroke to occur in 1/2 of a crank revolution (or alternatively: two strokes per one crank revolution) and a '60' to convert seconds from minutes in the RPM term.

  5. Fundamental diagram of traffic flow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_diagram_of...

    Speed – flow diagrams are used to determine the speed at which the optimum flow occurs. There are currently two shapes of the speed-flow curve. The speed-flow curve also consists of two branches, the free flow and congested branches. The diagram is not a function, allowing the flow variable to exist at two different speeds.

  6. Speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed

    The average speed of an object in an interval of time is the distance travelled by the object divided by the duration of the interval; [2] the instantaneous speed is the limit of the average speed as the duration of the time interval approaches zero. Speed is the magnitude of velocity (a vector), which indicates additionally the direction of ...

  7. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    Equation [3] involves the average velocity ⁠ v + v 0 / 2 ⁠. Intuitively, the velocity increases linearly, so the average velocity multiplied by time is the distance traveled while increasing the velocity from v 0 to v, as can be illustrated graphically by plotting velocity against time as a straight line graph. Algebraically, it follows ...

  8. Automobile drag coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automobile_drag_coefficient

    The average modern automobile achieves a drag coefficient of between 0.25 and 0.3. Sport utility vehicles (SUVs), with their typically boxy shapes, typically achieve a C d =0.35–0.45. The drag coefficient of a vehicle is affected by the shape of body of the vehicle.

  9. Relative velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relative_velocity

    is the velocity of the Man relative to the Train, v T ∣ E {\displaystyle \mathbf {v} _{T\mid E}} is the velocity of the T rain relative to E arth. Fully legitimate expressions for "the velocity of A relative to B" include "the velocity of A with respect to B" and "the velocity of A in the coordinate system where B is always at rest".
