  2. Linear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motion

    The linear motion can be of two types: uniform linear motion, with constant velocity (zero acceleration); and non-uniform linear motion, with variable velocity (non-zero acceleration). The motion of a particle (a point-like object) along a line can be described by its position , which varies with (time). An example of linear motion is an ...

  3. Motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion

    Linear motionmotion that follows a straight linear path, and whose displacement is exactly the same as its trajectory. [Also known as rectilinear motion] Reciprocal motion; Brownian motion – the random movement of very small particles; Circular motion; Rotatory motion – a motion about a fixed point. (e.g. Ferris wheel).

  4. Elements of art - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elements_of_art

    Lines are marks moving in a space between two points whereby a viewer can visualize the stroke movement, direction, and intention based on how the line is oriented. [1] [2] Lines describe an outline, capable of producing texture according to their length and curve. [3]

  5. Rectilinear - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectilinear

    Rectilinear prophecy, where a straight line can be drawn from the prophecy to the fulfillment without any branches as in the case of typological interpretations Near-rectilinear halo orbit , a highly-elliptical orbit around a Lagrangian point of a moon, that due to the moons orbital movement, will be nearly rectilinear in some frames of reference.

  6. Art movement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_movement

    An art movement is a tendency or style in art with a specific art philosophy or goal, followed by a group of artists during a specific period of time, (usually a few months, years or decades) or, at least, with the heyday of the movement defined within a number of years.

  7. Quasiperiodic motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasiperiodic_motion

    Rectilinear motion along a line in a Euclidean space gives rise to a quasiperiodic motion if the space is turned into a torus (a compact space) by making every point equivalent to any other point situated in the same way with respect to the integer lattice (the points with integer coordinates), so long as the direction cosines of the rectilinear motion form irrational ratios.

  8. Inertial frame of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_frame_of_reference

    A reference frame in which a mass point thrown from the same point in three different (non co-planar) directions follows rectilinear paths each time it is thrown, is called an inertial frame. [13] The inadequacy of the notion of "absolute space" in Newtonian mechanics is spelled out by Blagojevich: [14]

  9. Anatomical terms of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anatomical_terms_of_motion

    Linear motions (or translatory motions), which move in a line between two points. Rectilinear motion is motion in a straight line between two points, whereas curvilinear motion is motion following a curved path. [2] Angular motions (or rotary motions) occur when an object is around another object increasing or decreasing the angle. The ...
