Sentences with phrase «horizontal component»

The friction force is usually backward, reducing the horizontal component of the ball's forward velocity.

In that case, the friction force on the ball is in the same direction as the horizontal component of the ball's velocity.

Therefore, if the topspin is large enough so that 2πRF is greater than Vcm, the horizontal component of the ball's velocity will increase after the bounce.

The apex of the trajectory is a point at which the vertical component of the muzzle velocity has been used up in overcoming gravity and only the horizontal component remains.

It is evident that, if an aeroplane should be moving on a level with the apex of the trajectory considered and in the vertical plane containing the trajectory, with a velocity equal to the horizontal component of the muzzle velocity, and should, at the apex, drop a projectile of the same weight, size and shape as that of the mortar, the projectile thus dropped would take the identically same path and strike with the same velocity as the mortar projectile.

Based on these observations and experiments, Harker and Pevtsov conclude that the observed magnetic transient is not an artifact created by the SDO / HMI observation process, but instead represents a real change in the vector magnetic field; since the active region was located so close to the solar limb, this suggests that the transient manifested in the horizontal component of the magnetic field (relative to the solar surface).

The direction the user's legs are moving is not as vertical as with the other two climbers, but also has a horizontal component as well.

Namely, working out on this machine places particular strain on the glutes, due to the horizontal component, while it works the quads a bit less intensely.

As demonstrated by the above illustration, the dog's ear canal has both a vertical and a horizontal component, unlike the human ear canal which is straight.

A dog's ear canal has both a vertical and a horizontal component.

For our thin rapidly rotating atmospheric spherical shell, the key inhomogeneity is the latitude dependence of the strength of the horizontal component of the Coriolis force, the «Coriolis parameter», where is the latitude.

These desktops combine huge, small - bezel displays with a horizontal component body that integrates a quad - speaker Bang & Olufsen soundbar.
