  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. Motion graphs and derivatives - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_graphs_and_derivatives

    In SI, this slope or derivative is expressed in the units of meters per second per second (/, usually termed "meters per second-squared"). 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 ...

  4. 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 x {\displaystyle x} , which varies with t {\displaystyle t} (time).

  5. 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. The eighth derivative has been referred to as "Boom," and the 9th is known as "Crash."

  6. Kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics

    It is often convenient to formulate the trajectory of a particle r(t) = (x(t), y(t), z(t)) using polar coordinates in the X–Y plane. In this case, its velocity and acceleration take a convenient form. Recall that the trajectory of a particle P is defined by its coordinate vector r measured in a fixed reference frame F.

  7. Derivative - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Derivative

    In mathematics, the derivative is a fundamental tool that quantifies the sensitivity to change of a function's output with respect to its input. The derivative of a function of a single variable at a chosen input value, when it exists, is the slope of the tangent line to the graph of the function at that point.

  8. Absement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absement

    [1] [2] Absement changes as an object remains displaced and stays constant as the object resides at the initial position. It is the first time-integral of the displacement [3] [4] (i.e. absement is the area under a displacement vs. time graph), so the displacement is the rate of change (first time-derivative) of the absement.

  9. Biharmonic equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biharmonic_equation

    Just as harmonic functions in 2 variables are closely related to complex analytic functions, so are biharmonic functions in 2 variables. The general form of a biharmonic function in 2 variables can also be written as Im ⁡ ( z ¯ f ( z ) + g ( z ) ) {\displaystyle \operatorname {Im} ({\bar {z}}f(z)+g(z))} where f ( z ) {\displaystyle f(z)} and ...
