  2. Means test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Means_test

    Means tests are also not used for pensions and seniors' benefits, but there is a clawback of Old Age Security payments for people making over $69,562 (in 2012). The Last Post Fund uses a means test on a deceased veteran's estate and surviving widow to determine whether they are eligible for federal funding to subsidize their funeral. [1]

  3. Acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceleration

    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 ...

  4. California High School Proficiency Exam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_High_School...

    The California High School Proficiency Exam (CHSPE) was an early exit testing program established under California law (California Education Code Section 48412). Testers who passed the CHSPE received a high school equivalency (HSE) diploma granted by the California State Board of Education .

  5. Proper acceleration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proper_acceleration

    In an accelerating rocket after launch, or even in a rocket standing on the launch pad, the proper acceleration is the acceleration felt by the occupants, and which is described as g-force (which is not a force but rather an acceleration; see that article for more discussion) delivered by the vehicle only.

  6. California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/California_Assessment_of...

    The California Achievement Test, Sixth Edition (CAT/6), shows how well students are doing compared to students nationally in reading, language, spelling, and mathematics in grades 3 and 7 only. [ 2 ] California's school accountability system was originally based solely on scores from the CAT/6 .

  7. 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.

  8. Circular motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circular_motion

    The inward acceleration is 1 metre per square second, v 2 /r. It is subject to a centripetal force of 1 kilogram metre per square second, which is 1 newton. The momentum of the body is 1 kg·m·s −1. The moment of inertia is 1 kg·m 2. The angular momentum is 1 kg·m 2 ·s −1. The kinetic energy is 0.5 joule.

    In computer graphics, the centripetal Catmull–Rom spline is a variant form of the Catmull–Rom spline, originally formulated by Edwin Catmull and Raphael Rom, [1] which can be evaluated using a recursive algorithm proposed by Barry and Goldman. [2]
