  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

    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.)

  4. Jerk (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Jerk (also known as Jolt) is the rate of change of an object's acceleration over time. It is a vector quantity (having both magnitude and direction). Jerk is most commonly denoted by the symbol j and expressed in m/s 3 ( SI units ) or standard gravities per second ( g 0 /s).

    They are often referred to as the SUVAT equations, where "SUVAT" is an acronym from the variables: s = displacement, u = initial velocity, v = final velocity, a = acceleration, t = time. [ 10 ] [ 11 ] In these variables, the equations of motion would be written

  7. Tautochrone curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tautochrone_curve

    A tautochrone curve or isochrone curve (from Ancient Greek ταὐτό 'same' ἴσος 'equal' and χρόνος 'time') is the curve for which the time taken by an object sliding without friction in uniform gravity to its lowest point is independent of its starting point on the curve.

  8. Linear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_motion

    Acceleration is the second derivative of displacement i.e. acceleration can be found by differentiating position with respect to time twice or differentiating velocity with respect to time once. [10] The SI unit of acceleration is m ⋅ s − 2 {\displaystyle \mathrm {m\cdot s^{-2}} } or metre per second squared .

  9. Structural dynamics - Wikipedia

    Assuming that the rise time t r is known (T = 2 π /ω), it is possible to read the DAF from a standard graph. The static displacement can be calculated with =,,. The dynamic displacement for the chosen mode and applied force can then be found from:
