  1. What is the difference between "kinematics" and "dynamics"?

    A quick Google search reveals "dynamic and kinematic viscosity," "kinematic and dynamic performance," "fully dynamic and kinematic voronoi diagrams," "kinematic and reduced-dynamic …

  2. Difference b/w Kinetics & Kinematics w/concrete example

    Jul 30, 2016 · seems to me like "kinematics" analyzes the motion (trajectories etc.), without worrying what is causing the motion. While "kinetics" or as most would say "dynamics" does care about what …

  3. kinematics - What does the magnitude of the acceleration mean ...

    Feb 9, 2014 · Your question is kind of vague but I will try to respond. Acceleration is defined as the time rate of change of velocity. Since velocity has both magnitude and direction, so does acceleration. In …

  4. kinematics - Is Retardation and Deceleration the same thing? - Physics ...

    Oct 31, 2023 · Deceleration and retardation used more-or-less interchangably to mean negative acceleration. Because the velocity is a vector, this has a counter-intuitive meaning: Consider …

  5. kinematics - Real world intuitive explanation of Jerk - Physics Stack ...

    Acceleration changes with force, so the derivative of acceleration changes with the derivative of force. In other words, if, $$ m\ddot x = F, $$ then, $$ m\dddot x = \dot F. $$ So, jerk is the rate at which the …

  6. Why do kinematic equations only work with constant acceleration?

    May 20, 2022 · Look at the definition of velocity and acceleration. The kinematic equations were derived from those definitions.

  7. kinematics - Stopping Distance (frictionless) - Physics Stack Exchange

    Oct 8, 2014 · Assuming I have a body travelling in space at a rate of $1000~\\text{m/s}$. Let's also assume my maximum deceleration speed is $10~\\text{m/s}^2$. How can I calculate the minimum …

  8. kinematics - How do we implement the speed differential for the ...

    Mar 11, 2021 · kinematics velocity rotational-kinematics angular-velocity See similar questions with these tags.

  9. kinematics - Are position, velocity, and acceleration total or partial ...

    Dec 24, 2024 · In general, when analyzing kinematics, how do we decide whether to treat velocity, acceleration, position, or time as dependent or independent variables? Is time always the …

  10. kinematics - Why do I get a negative time? - Physics Stack Exchange

    Use kinematics to calculate the acceleration, which is $-2\ \mathrm {\frac {m} {s^2}}$. assuming the sprinter is running to the right, I defined any motion opposite to that is negative.
