    Cartesian x-axis basis unit vector unitless current density: ampere per square meter (A/m 2) impulse: kilogram meter per second (kg⋅m/s) jerk: meter per second cubed (m/s 3) imaginary unit (electrical) unitless ȷ ^

  3. Pseudorapidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pseudorapidity

    This is an important feature for hadron collider physics, where the colliding partons carry different longitudinal momentum fractions x, which means that the rest frames of the parton-parton collisions will have different longitudinal boosts. The rapidity as a function of pseudorapidity is given by

  4. Hooke's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooke's_law

    In physics, Hooke's law is an empirical law which states that the force (F) needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance (x) scales linearly with respect to that distance—that is, F s = kx, where k is a constant factor characteristic of the spring (i.e., its stiffness), and x is small compared to the total possible deformation of the spring.

    In it, geometrical shapes can be made, as well as expressions from the normal graphing calculator, with extra features. [8] In September 2023, Desmos released a beta for a 3D calculator, which added features on top of the 2D calculator, including cross products, partial derivatives and double-variable parametric equations.

  6. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

  7. Motion graphs and derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_graphs_and_derivatives

    The green line shows the slope of the velocity-time graph at the particular point where the two lines touch. Its slope is the acceleration at that point. Its slope is the acceleration at that point. In mechanics , the derivative of the position vs. time graph of an object is equal to the velocity of the object.

  8. Rapidity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rapidity

    Any point on the hyperbola has light-cone coordinates (, ) where w is the rapidity, and is equal to the area of the hyperbolic sector from (1, 1) to these coordinates. Many authors refer instead to the unit hyperbola x 2 − y 2 {\displaystyle x^{2}-y^{2}} , using rapidity for a parameter, as in the standard spacetime diagram .

  9. Planck units - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planck_units

    Moreover, the choice of what factors to normalize, among the factors appearing in the fundamental equations of physics, is not evident, and the values of the Planck units are sensitive to this choice. The factor 4 π is ubiquitous in theoretical physics because in three-dimensional space, the surface area of a sphere of radius r is 4 π r 2.
