  2. 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 ]

  3. Inertial frame of reference - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inertial_frame_of_reference

    An accelerated frame of reference is often delineated as being the "primed" frame, and all variables that are dependent on that frame are notated with primes, e.g. x′, y′, a′. The vector from the origin of an inertial reference frame to the origin of an accelerated reference frame is commonly notated as R.

  4. Moment of inertia - Wikipedia

    The moment of inertia is defined as the product of mass of section and the square of the distance between the reference axis ... dependent on a particular axis of ...

  5. Second polar moment of area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_polar_moment_of_area

    The second polar moment of area, also known (incorrectly, colloquially) as "polar moment of inertia" or even "moment of inertia", is a quantity used to describe resistance to torsional deformation (), in objects (or segments of an object) with an invariant cross-section and no significant warping or out-of-plane deformation. [1]

  6. Second moment of area - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_moment_of_area

    In physics, moment of inertia is strictly the second moment of mass with respect to distance from an axis: =, where r is the distance to some potential rotation axis, and the integral is over all the infinitesimal elements of mass, dm, in a three-dimensional space occupied by an object Q. The MOI, in this sense, is the analog of mass for ...

    Treasury secretary nominee Scott Bessent told Senate lawmakers Thursday that the Federal Reserve should remain independent, but that Donald Trump 'is going to make his views known' as president.

  8. Mass in special relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_in_special_relativity

    The word "mass" has two meanings in special relativity: invariant mass (also called rest mass) is an invariant quantity which is the same for all observers in all reference frames, while the relativistic mass is dependent on the velocity of the observer.
