Trajectories - HyperPhysics
In the absence of frictional drag, an object near the surface of the earth will fall with the constant acceleration of gravity g. Position and speed at any time can be calculated from the motion …
Equipotential Lines - HyperPhysics
Equipotential lines are like contour lines on a map which trace lines of equal altitude. In this case the "altitude" is electric potential or voltage. Equipotential lines are always perpendicular to the …
Description of Motion in One Dimension - HyperPhysics
Description of Motion in One Dimension. Motion is described in terms of displacement (x), time (t), velocity (v), and acceleration (a). Velocity is the rate of change of displacement and the …

CIE Color System - HyperPhysics
The C.I.E. Color Space. The CIE system characterizes colors by a luminance parameter Y and two color coordinates x and y which specify the point on the chromaticity diagram.
Biology Concepts - HyperPhysics
Biology Concepts. This is a beginning list of some topics in biology which have connections to physical science concepts. Chloroplasts and the second law of thermodynamics. Order from …
Force - HyperPhysics
Our present understanding is that there are four fundamental forces in the universe, the gravity force, the nuclear weak force, the electromagnetic force, and the nuclear strong force in …
Gravity Concepts and Applications - HyperPhysics
Viewed as an exchange force, the massless exchange particle is called the graviton. From Einstein's treatment in general relativity, gravity is associated with a curvature of space-time …
