  2. Velocity of money - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity_of_money

    The velocity of money provides another perspective on money demand.Given the nominal flow of transactions using money, if the interest rate on alternative financial assets is high, people will not want to hold much money relative to the quantity of their transactions—they try to exchange it fast for goods or other financial assets, and money is said to "burn a hole in their pocket" and ...

  3. Velocity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Velocity

    Velocity is the speed in combination with the direction of motion of an object. Velocity is a fundamental concept in kinematics, the branch of classical mechanics that describes the motion of bodies. Velocity is a physical vector quantity: both magnitude and direction are needed to define it.

  4. Econophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Econophysics

    Econophysics is a non-orthodox (in economics) interdisciplinary research field, applying theories and methods originally developed by physicists in order to solve problems in economics, usually those including uncertainty or stochastic processes and nonlinear dynamics.

  5. Equation of exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_exchange

    This equation is a rearrangement of the definition of velocity: :=. As such, without the introduction of any assumptions, it is a tautology . The quantity theory of money adds assumptions about the money supply, the price level, and the effect of interest rates on velocity to create a theory about the causes of inflation and the effects of ...

  6. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    A differential equation of motion, usually identified as some physical law (for example, F = ma), and applying definitions of physical quantities, is used to set up an equation to solve a kinematics problem. Solving the differential equation will lead to a general solution with arbitrary constants, the arbitrariness corresponding to a set of ...

    Angular velocity: the angular velocity ω is the rate at which the angular position θ changes with respect to time t: = The angular velocity is represented in Figure 1 by a vector Ω pointing along the axis of rotation with magnitude ω and sense determined by the direction of rotation as given by the right-hand rule.

  8. Analytical mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Analytical_mechanics

    The two-body problem is solved by formulas involving parameters; their values can be changed to study the class of all solutions, that is, the mathematical structure of the problem. Moreover, an accurate mental or drawn picture can be made for the motion of two bodies, and it can be as real and accurate as the real bodies moving and interacting.

  9. List of equations in classical mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_equations_in...

    Classical mechanics is the branch of physics used to describe the motion of macroscopic objects. [1] It is the most familiar of the theories of physics. The concepts it covers, such as mass, acceleration, and force, are commonly used and known. [2]
