  1. A simple derivation of the Centripetal Acceleration Formula?

    Jul 12, 2015 · Could someone show me a simple and intuitive derivation of the Centripetal Acceleration Formula $a=v^2/r$, preferably one that does not involve calculus or advanced ...

  2. Linear acceleration vs angular acceleration equation

    It's the magnitude of the linear acceleration towards the centre of an object following a circular path at constant angular velocity. Angular acceleration is the derivative of angular velocity, and …

  3. 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. …

  4. Acceleration in $F=ma$ - Physics Stack Exchange

    What results is a change in the position (via a constant acceleration). I can't cause an acceleration without first creating a force. But mass exists regardless of force or acceleration, and force …

  5. Acceleration as a function of position and time

    May 28, 2020 · Moreover, if the acceleration was a function of position, $a (x)$, you use the fact that $a (x) = v (x) \cdot dv/dx$ and solve for $v (x)$. However, what if the function of …

  6. Intuitive explanation for why centripetal acceleration is $\frac {v^2 ...

    Jun 21, 2015 · There are several ways to write centripetal acceleration $$\frac {v^2} {r} = \omega^2 r = v \omega$$ Are there intuitive explanations for any of these three forms?

  7. acceleration - Does the SUVAT equations of motion (Kinematics) …

    Jan 10, 2021 · So, does the SUVAT equations of motion come from some differential equation? Can someone please show me the derivation of them from some differential equation? The …

  8. In the kinematic equations, how is that possible while deriving an ...

    Oct 19, 2024 · 1) that deals with acceleration as if it equals zero (meaning there is absolutely no acceleration), and an equation that has acceleration as constant (meaning there is …

  9. 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 …

  10. In a Distance-Time^2 graph, does the Slope represent …

    Feb 26, 2016 · Using the linear slope in this case is useless, outside a rough guess. To properly solve for acceleration, first you need to find out the velocity as a function of time, then you can …
