  2. Intelligence source and information reliability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intelligence_source_and...

    The source reliability is rated between A (history of complete reliability) to E (history of invalid information), with F for source without sufficient history to establish reliability level. The information content is rated between 1 (confirmed) to 5 (improbable), with 6 for information whose reliability can not be evaluated.

  3. Admiralty code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Admiralty_code

    D - Not usually reliable: Significant doubt about authenticity, trustworthiness, or competency but has provided valid information in the past E - Unreliable: Lacking in authenticity, trustworthiness, and competency; history of invalid information F - Reliability cannot be judged: No basis exists for evaluating the reliability of the source

  4. Newton's laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton's_laws_of_motion

    Newton's laws are often stated in terms of point or particle masses, that is, bodies whose volume is negligible. This is a reasonable approximation for real bodies when the motion of internal parts can be neglected, and when the separation between bodies is much larger than the size of each.

  5. Laws of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_motion

    In physics, a number of noted theories of the motion of objects have developed. Among the best known are: Classical mechanics. Newton's laws of motion; Euler's laws of motion; Cauchy's equations of motion; Kepler's laws of planetary motion ; General relativity; Special relativity; Quantum mechanics

  6. Motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion

    This motion is the most obscure as it is not physical motion, but rather a change in the very nature of the universe. The primary source of verification of this expansion was provided by Edwin Hubble who demonstrated that all galaxies and distant astronomical objects were moving away from Earth, known as Hubble's law , predicted by a universal ...

  7. Galilean invariance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Galilean_invariance

    Galilean invariance or Galilean relativity states that the laws of motion are the same in all inertial frames of reference. Galileo Galilei first described this principle in 1632 in his Dialogue Concerning the Two Chief World Systems using the example of a ship travelling at constant velocity, without rocking, on a smooth sea; any observer below the deck would not be able to tell whether the ...

  8. Structural dynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_dynamics

    The distinction is made between the dynamic and the static analysis on the basis of whether the applied action has enough acceleration in comparison to the structure's natural frequency. If a load is applied sufficiently slowly, the inertia forces (Newton's first law of motion) can be ignored and the analysis can be simplified as static analysis.

  9. Circular motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_motion

    The first of Newton's laws of motion states that an object's inertia keeps it in motion; since the object in the air has a velocity, it will tend to keep moving in that direction. A varying angular speed for an object moving in a circular path can also be achieved if the rotating body does not have a homogeneous mass distribution. [2]
