Why is acceleration's formula's denominator squared?
Mar 20, 2025 · The acceleration can change over time and this is why this approximation breaks down if the acceleration changes too much within the time interval. If you want to know more …
Calculate acceleration from power - Physics Stack Exchange
Rocket engine providing constant thrust (not power) would indeed produce constant acceleration except for the fact that the mass of the rocket changes. But you asked about a rocket motor …
classical mechanics - Acceleration in plane polar coordinates
Dec 2, 2017 · The third term is just the angular acceleration and the fourth one is the Coriolis acceleration, it's a real one here since our two direction vectors change with time. You've …
Determine acceleration from experiment (Newton 2nd Law)
I have done a physics experiment (setup below). And was asked to determine the experimental and theoretical acceleration. The data I've got Ok, am I right to say Experimental acceleration …
Centripetal Acceleration as a Cross Product - Physics Stack Exchange
Jan 18, 2019 · The acceleration is along $-\bf {r}$ direction. This is because, for an object to in the circular motion, it needs to be "pulled" inwards towards the origin (pivot) by some force (for …
Derivation of the centrifugal and coriolis force
Dec 29, 2013 · I was wondering how easily these two pseudo-forces can be derived mathematically in order to exhibit a clear physical meaning. How would you proceed?
How to get distance when acceleration is not constant?
The acceleration is obviously not constant, but what about the change in acceleration? Is it constant? I suspect not. And then what about the change in the change of acceleration, etc. …
Conceptual help with a modified atwood machine
The acceleration is equal throughout the string, so the acceleration is equal to the force of gravity on m2. That makes sense to me algebraically and conceptually, but why does the TENSION …
