  1. Velocity - Wikipedia

    From this derivative equation, in the one-dimensional case it can be seen that the area under a velocity vs. time (v vs. t graph) is the displacement, s. In calculus terms, the integral of the …

  2. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    Stated formally, in general, an equation of motion M is a function of the position r of the object, its velocity (the first time derivative of r, v = ⁠dr dt⁠), and its acceleration (the second derivative of r, …

  3. Relative velocity - Wikipedia

    The relative velocity of an object B with respect to an observer A, denoted (also or ), is the velocity vector of B measured in the rest frame of A. The relative speed is the vector norm of the …

  4. Velocity-addition formula - Wikipedia

    In relativistic physics, a velocity-addition formula is an equation that specifies how to combine the velocities of objects in a way that is consistent with the requirement that no object's speed can …

  5. List of relativistic equations - Wikipedia

    To derive the equations of special relativity, one must start with two other The laws of physics are invariant under transformations between inertial frames. In other words, the laws of physics …

  6. Navier–Stokes equations - Wikipedia

    Flow velocity The solution of the equations is a flow velocity. It is a vector field —to every point in a fluid, at any moment in a time interval, it gives a vector whose direction and magnitude are …

  7. Angular velocity - Wikipedia

    In physics, angular velocity (symbol ω or ⁠ ⁠, the lowercase Greek letter omega), also known as the angular frequency vector, [1] is a pseudovector representation of how the angular position or …

  8. Stokes' law - Wikipedia

    is the flow velocity relative to the object (meters per second). Note the minus sign in the equation, the drag force points in the opposite direction to the relative velocity: drag opposes the motion. …
