It is commonly used for citing sources within the field of behavioral and social sciences , including sociology, education, nursing, criminal justice, anthropology, and psychology.

  3. Inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertia

    Inertia is the natural tendency of objects in motion to stay in motion and objects at rest to stay at rest, unless a force causes the velocity to change. It is one of the fundamental principles in classical physics, and described by Isaac Newton in his first law of motion (also known as The Principle of Inertia). [1]

  4. Sylvester's law of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sylvester's_law_of_inertia

    Sylvester's law of inertia is a theorem in matrix algebra about certain properties of the coefficient matrix of a real quadratic form that remain invariant under a change of basis.

  5. List of moments of inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_moments_of_inertia

    The moment of inertia, denoted by I, measures the extent to which an object resists rotational acceleration about a particular axis; it is the rotational analogue to mass (which determines an object's resistance to linear acceleration).

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moment_of_inertia

    The scalar moment of inertia, , of a body about a specified axis whose direction is specified by the unit vector ^ and passes through the body at a point is as follows: [7] = ^ (= []) ^ = ^ ^ = ^ ^, where is the moment of inertia matrix of the system relative to the reference point , and [] is the skew symmetric matrix obtained from the vector =.

  8. Phylogenetic inertia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phylogenetic_inertia

    Evolution of fish to tetrapods. The basic body plan has been phylogenetically constrained. Most terrestrial vertebrates have a body plan that consist of four limbs. The phylogenetic inertia hypothesis suggests that this body plan is observed, not because it happens to be optimal, but because tetrapods are derived from a clade of fishes (Sarcopterygii) which also have four limbs.
