2. Displacement (geometry) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Displacement_(geometry)

   Displacement is the shift in location when an object in motion changes from one position to another. [2] For motion over a given interval of time, the displacement divided by the length of the time interval defines the average velocity (a vector), whose magnitude is the average speed (a scalar quantity).

3. Tautochrone curve - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tautochrone_curve

   In the tautochrone problem, if the particle's position is parametrized by the arclength s(t) from the lowest point, the kinetic energy is then proportional to ˙, and the potential energy is proportional to the height h(s). One way the curve in the tautochrone problem can be an isochrone is if the Lagrangian is mathematically equivalent to a ...

4. Solid mechanics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_mechanics

   A solid is a material that can support a substantial amount of shearing force over a given time scale during a natural or industrial process or action. This is what distinguishes solids from fluids, because fluids also support normal forces which are those forces that are directed perpendicular to the material plane across from which they act and normal stress is the normal force per unit area ...

5. Position and momentum spaces - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Position_and_momentum_spaces

   Momentum space is the set of all momentum vectors p a physical system can have; the momentum vector of a particle corresponds to its motion, with dimension of mass ⋅ length ⋅ time −1. Mathematically, the duality between position and momentum is an example of Pontryagin duality .

6. Euler's laws of motion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_laws_of_motion

   Euler's second law states that the rate of change of angular momentum L about a point that is fixed in an inertial reference frame (often the center of mass of the body), is equal to the sum of the external moments of force acting on that body M about that point: [1] [4] [5]

7. Effective mass (solid-state physics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Effective_mass_(solid...

   One of the results from the band theory of solids is that the movement of particles in a periodic potential, over long distances larger than the lattice spacing, can be very different from their motion in a vacuum. The effective mass is a quantity that is used to simplify band structures by modeling the behavior of a free particle with that mass.

8. Mathematical formulation of the Standard Model - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_formulation...

   The free fields care for particles in isolation, whereas processes involving several particles arise through interactions. The idea is that the state vector should only change when particles interact, meaning a free particle is one whose quantum state is constant. This corresponds to the interaction picture in quantum mechanics.

9. Symbolab - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolab

   Symbolab is an answer engine [1] that provides step-by-step solutions to mathematical problems in a range of subjects. [2] It was originally developed by Israeli start-up company EqsQuest Ltd., under whom it was released for public use in 2011. In 2020, the company was acquired by American educational technology website Course Hero. [3] [4]
