As expected, the acceleration of P has both non-zero tangential and normal components. From the equation provided for speed as a function of distance traveled, the speed of P is monotonically ...

The normal component of acceleration is known as the “centripetal” component. It is proportional to the square of the speed, and inversely proportional to the radius of curvature of the path. The ...

Kumamoto University researcher's new theoretical model considers the normal component of liquid surface tension in addition to the tangential component. This image may only be used in conjunction with ...
