Sentences with phrase «mass times acceleration»

Force equals mass times acceleration.
Force equals mass times acceleration, and objects with a smaller mass have a greater acceleration (and vice versa).
Force equals mass times acceleration.
«Force equals mass times acceleration,» Steele says.
Now remember that force equals mass times acceleration and there is a whole lot of mass to go along with the acceleration, so the overall force isn't going to smash open the planet, but it's enough to smash through a crustacean's armor to inject some poison.
All high school physics students can tell you that force equals mass times acceleration, and a 6 - 2, 210 - pound safety who runs a 4.5 40 is going to deliver a significantly more dangerous hit than a 5 - 10, 160 - pound safety who runs a 5.2.

Not exact matches

(i) in classical or relativistic mechanics, mass is only assessed in the context of possible accelerations, which in turn require the context of a continuous time interval;

What they found was surprising: The mass behind the orbital acceleration of a galaxy's clouds was five times larger than the mass of the stuff you could see — stars and gas — spread across the galaxy.
At the same time, the reduced unsprung masses improve the handling and the acceleration and braking response.
However, I would keep in mind the fact that over a decade's time, we have seen more than a doubling of the rate of loss of mass balance in Greenland, a tripling in icequakes, the warming of the West Antarctic Peninsula resulting in the acceleration of glaciers, the accelerating loss of global glacier mass balance, etc..

We use our acceleration estimates to back calculate to a time of zero velocity, which coincides with the initiation of ice loss in Iceland from ice mass balance calculations and Arctic warming trends.
Estimates of the decadal variability in ice sheet mass loss (11) suggest the impact on acceleration estimates is ∼ 0.014 mm / y2 for a 25 - y time series, in the absence of rapid dynamical changes in the ice sheets.
However, detecting acceleration is difficult because of (i) interannual variability in GMSL largely driven by changes in terrestrial water storage (TWS)(7 ⇓ — 9), (ii) decadal variability in TWS (10), thermosteric sea level, and ice sheet mass loss (11) that might masquerade as a long - term acceleration over a 25 - y record, (iii) episodic variability driven by large volcanic eruptions (12), and (iv) errors in the altimeter data, in particular, potential drifts in the instruments over time (13).
Jupiter is (from memory) a bit over 5 times the distance from the sun as Earth is; thus, with about 1/1000 the mass of the sun, the gravitational acceleration of the Earth toward the sun due to the sun's mass is about 1000 * (4 to 6) ^ 2 = 16,000 to 36,000 times that of it's acceleration toward Jupiter due to Jupiter's mass, whereas if the Earth were accelerating toward the barycenter of the Sun - Jupiter system, shouldn't that ratio should be ~ 1000 * 1 / (4 to 6) = 250 to ~ 167?
