  2. Fourth, fifth, and sixth derivatives of position - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourth,_fifth,_and_sixth...

    Snap, [6] or jounce, [2] is the fourth derivative of the position vector with respect to time, or the rate of change of the jerk with respect to time. [4] Equivalently, it is the second derivative of acceleration or the third derivative of velocity, and is defined by any of the following equivalent expressions: = ȷ = = =.

  3. Time derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time_derivative

    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. A common occurrence in physics is the time derivative of a vector, such as velocity or displacement. In dealing ...

  4. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Further time derivatives have also been named, as snap or jounce (fourth derivative), crackle (fifth derivative), and pop (sixth derivative). [ 12 ] [ 13 ] The seventh derivative is known as "Bang," as it is a logical continuation to the cycle.

  5. Motion graphs and derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_graphs_and_derivatives

    Since acceleration differentiates the expression involving position, it can be rewritten as a second derivative with respect to time: a = d 2 s d t 2 . {\displaystyle a={\frac {d^{2}s}{dt^{2}}}.} Since, for the purposes of mechanics such as this, integration is the opposite of differentiation, it is also possible to express position as a ...

  6. 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.

  7. Absement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absement

    Integrals and derivatives of displacement, including absement, as well as integrals and derivatives of energy, including actergy. (Janzen et al. 2014) (Janzen et al. 2014) In kinematics , absement (or absition ) is a measure of sustained displacement of an object from its initial position , i.e. a measure of how far away and for how long.

  8. Derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivative

    One application of higher-order derivatives is in physics. Suppose that a function represents the position of an object at the time. The first derivative of that function is the velocity of an object with respect to time, the second derivative of the function is the acceleration of an object with respect to time, [29] and the third derivative ...

  9. Euler's equations (rigid body dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_equations_(rigid...

    In an inertial frame of reference (subscripted "in"), Euler's second law states that the time derivative of the angular momentum L equals the applied torque: = For point particles such that the internal forces are central forces, this may be derived using Newton's second law.
