  2. 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.)

  3. Spacetime diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spacetime_diagram

    A spacetime diagram is a graphical illustration of locations in space at various times, especially in the special theory of relativity.Spacetime diagrams can show the geometry underlying phenomena like time dilation and length contraction without mathematical equations.

  4. Motion chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_chart

    A motion chart is a dynamic bubble chart which allows efficient and interactive exploration and visualization of longitudinal multivariate data. [1] Motion charts provide mechanisms for mapping ordinal, nominal and quantitative variables onto time, 2D coordinate axes, size, colors, glyphs and appearance characteristics, which facilitate the ...

  5. Motion graphics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_graphics

    Motion graphics (sometimes mograph) are pieces of animation or digital footage that create the illusion of motion or rotation, and are usually combined with audio for use in multimedia projects. Motion graphics are usually displayed via electronic media technology, but may also be displayed via manual powered technology (e.g. thaumatrope ...

  6. Phase portrait - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_portrait

    The equation of motion is ¨ + ˙ + = In mathematics , a phase portrait is a geometric representation of the orbits of a dynamical system in the phase plane . Each set of initial conditions is represented by a different point or curve .

  7. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    A 3D projection (or graphical projection) is a design technique used to display a three-dimensional (3D) object on a two-dimensional (2D) surface. These projections rely on visual perspective and aspect analysis to project a complex object for viewing capability on a simpler plane.

  8. Mohr's circle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohr's_circle

    19th-century German engineer Karl Culmann was the first to conceive a graphical representation for stresses while considering longitudinal and vertical stresses in horizontal beams during bending. His work inspired fellow German engineer Christian Otto Mohr (the circle's namesake), who extended it to both two- and three-dimensional stresses and ...

  9. Position and momentum spaces - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_and_momentum_spaces

    This quantum state can be represented as a superposition of basis states. In principle one is free to choose the set of basis states, as long as they span the state space. If one chooses the (generalized) eigenfunctions of the position operator as a set of basis functions, one speaks of a state as a wave function ψ(r) in position space.
