  2. Sliding (motion) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sliding_(motion)

    Sliding friction (also called kinetic friction) is a contact force that resists the sliding motion of two objects or an object and a surface. Sliding friction is almost always less than that of static friction; this is why it is easier to move an object once it starts moving rather than to get the object to begin moving from a rest position.

  3. Kinematics equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinematics_equations

    There are three Kinematic equations for linear (and generally uniform) motion. These are v = u + at; v 2 = u 2 + 2as; s = ut + ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ at 2; Besides these equations, there is one more equation used for finding displacement from the 0th to the nth second. The equation is: = + ()

  4. Equations of motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equations_of_motion

    There are two main descriptions of motion: dynamics and kinematics.Dynamics is general, since the momenta, forces and energy of the particles are taken into account. In this instance, sometimes the term dynamics refers to the differential equations that the system satisfies (e.g., Newton's second law or Euler–Lagrange equations), and sometimes to the solutions to those equations.

  5. Friction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friction

    Kinetic friction, also known as dynamic friction or sliding friction, occurs when two objects are moving relative to each other and rub together (like a sled on the ground). The coefficient of kinetic friction is typically denoted as μ k , and is usually less than the coefficient of static friction for the same materials.

  6. Coulomb damping - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulomb_damping

    Kinetic friction on the other hand, occurs when two objects are undergoing relative motion, as they slide against each other. The force F k exerted between the moving objects is equal in magnitude to the product of the normal force N and the coefficient of kinetic friction μ k: | | =. Regardless of the mode, friction always acts to oppose the ...

  7. Standard step method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_Step_Method

    For an M1 Profile, you must find the rise at the downstream boundary condition, the normal depth at the upstream boundary condition, and also the length of the transition.) To find the length of the gradually varied flow transitions, iterate the “step length”, instead of height, at the boundary condition height until equations 4 and 5 agree.

  8. Darcy friction factor formulae - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Darcy_friction_factor_formulae

    Churchill equation [24] (1977) is the only equation that can be evaluated for very slow flow (Reynolds number < 1), but the Cheng (2008), [25] and Bellos et al. (2018) [8] equations also return an approximately correct value for friction factor in the laminar flow region (Reynolds number < 2300). All of the others are for transitional and ...

  9. Euler's equations (rigid body dynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euler's_equations_(rigid...

    In classical mechanics, Euler's rotation equations are a vectorial quasilinear first-order ordinary differential equation describing the rotation of a rigid body, using a rotating reference frame with angular velocity ω whose axes are fixed to the body. They are named in honour of Leonhard Euler. Their general vector form is
