  2. De motu corporum in gyrum - Wikipedia

    Corollary 2 shows that, putting this in another way, the centripetal force is proportional to (1/P 2) * R where P is the orbital period. Corollary 3 shows that if P 2 is proportional to R, then the centripetal force would be independent of R. Corollary 4 shows that if P 2 is proportional to R 2, then the centripetal force would be proportional ...

  3. Centripetalism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centripetalism

    Centripetalism, sometimes called integrationism, [1] is a form of democratic power sharing for divided societies (usually along ethnic, religious or social lines) which aims to encourage the parties towards moderate and compromising policies and to reinforce the center of a divided political spectrum.

  4. Acceleration - Wikipedia

    are called the tangential acceleration and the normal or radial acceleration (or centripetal acceleration in circular motion, see also circular motion and centripetal force), respectively. Geometrical analysis of three-dimensional space curves, which explains tangent, (principal) normal and binormal, is described by the Frenet–Serret formulas ...

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

    The centripetal acceleration given by ⁠ v 2 / r ⁠ is normal to the arc and inward. When the particle passes the connection of pieces, it experiences a jump-discontinuity in acceleration given by ⁠ v 2 / r ⁠, and it undergoes a jerk that can be modeled by a Dirac delta, scaled to the jump-discontinuity.

  6. Centripetal force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centripetal_force

    A centripetal force (from Latin centrum, "center" and petere, "to seek" [1]) is a force that makes a body follow a curved path.The direction of the centripetal force is always orthogonal to the motion of the body and towards the fixed point of the instantaneous center of curvature of the path.

    Since the centrifugal force of the parts of the earth, arising from the earth's diurnal motion, which is to the force of gravity as 1 to 289, raises the waters under the equator to a height exceeding that under the poles by 85472 Paris feet, as above, in Prop. XIX., the force of the sun, which we have now shewed to be to the force of gravity as ...

    Indeed, the "lunfardo" word comes from a deformation of "lombardo", an Italian dialect (from Lombardia) spoken by northern Italian emigrants to the Buenos Aires region. Other local dialects in Latinoamerica created by the Italian emigrants are the Talian dialect in Brazil and the Chipilo dialect in Mexico. The following is a small list:

  9. Reactive centrifugal force - Wikipedia

    Then in accordance with Newton's third law of motion, there will also be an equal and opposite force exerted by the object on some other object, [1] [2] and this reaction force is sometimes called a reactive centrifugal force, as it is directed in the opposite direction of the centripetal force.
