  2. Acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration

    The tangential component is given by the angular acceleration , i.e., the rate of change = ˙ of the angular speed times the radius . That is, a t = r α . {\displaystyle a_{t}=r\alpha .} The sign of the tangential component of the acceleration is determined by the sign of the angular acceleration ( α {\displaystyle \alpha } ), and the tangent ...

  3. Tangential speed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tangential_speed

    Tangential speed and rotational speed are related: the greater the "RPMs", the larger the speed in metres per second. Tangential speed is directly proportional to rotational speed at any fixed distance from the axis of rotation. [1] However, tangential speed, unlike rotational speed, depends on radial distance (the distance from the axis).

  4. Curvilinear motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curvilinear_motion

    With cylindrical co-ordinates which are described as î and j, the motion is best described in polar form with components that resemble polar vectors.As with planar motion, the velocity is always tangential to the curve, but in this form acceleration consist of different intermediate components that can now run along the radius and its normal vector.

  6. Euler force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler_force

    In classical mechanics, the Euler force is the fictitious tangential force [1] that appears when a non-uniformly rotating reference frame is used for analysis of motion and there is variation in the angular velocity of the reference frame's axes.

  7. Kinematics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics

    The formula for the acceleration A P can now be obtained as: = ˙ + + (), or = / + / +, where α is the angular acceleration vector obtained from the derivative of the angular velocity vector; / =, is the relative position vector (the position of P relative to the origin O of the moving frame M); and = ¨ is the acceleration of the origin of ...

  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 .

    a cm = acceleration of the center of mass v cm = velocity of the center of mass τ = total torque acting about the center of mass I cm = moment of inertia about the center of mass ω = angular velocity of the body α = angular acceleration of the body
