The ascending axons project into the terminal abdominal ganglion and form a map, representing the direction of the air flow around the cerci. Four of the interneurons (R10-2a, R10-3a, L10-2a and L10-3a) arising from the cricket's terminal abdominal ganglion seem to encode the direction of...
An important part of measuring and describing speed is the direction of motion. After calculating speed, which is called a scalar quantity, we then ask where the object was traveling with that speed: north, south, up, away, etc. When we add direction to the quantity of speed it becomes v...
Over the past couple years or so there has been a dramatic rise in the number of HTML5 games around on the Web, thanks in no small part to the HTML5 gaming engines that are making their development much easier.In this tutorial, I'm going to show you how to build a simple space-...
Learning the constant acceleration equations sets you up perfectly for this type of problem, and if you have to find acceleration but only have a starting and final velocity, along with the distance travelled, you can determine the acceleration.
To determine the acceleration you experience in a corner, all we need is the radius of the corner and your speed. I measured the radius of a normal right turn at an intersection of two four-lane roads and found it to be about 17 metres. This means that if it went through this corner...
The “from node” of an edge is called the subject. The “to node” is called the object. When you connect two nodes with an edge, you form a subject-predicate-object statement, known as a Triple. The edges can be navigated and queried in either direction. So, a Knowledge Graph is ...
12. Carry the Right Supplies There've been times—usually when we're halfway through relocating a snowbank with our hands—that we've declared that we'd pay $500 for a snow shovel. The better solution is to throw one in your car before you leave, along with a bag of salt and a ...
Determine the G-forces on the object by dividing its average acceleration by the acceleration due to gravity: 32 ft/s². A car accelerating at 37.2 ft/s² experiences 37.2 / 32 = 1.16 G's. TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read)
Determine the time of fall when an object is dropped and the average velocity of the falling object was 12\ \mathrm{m/s}? 1) How high would an object have been dropped if it took 1.22 seconds to fall to the ground? 2) How long would it ta...
While drones typically use accelerometers to estimate the direction ofgravity, the way flyinginsectsachieve this has been shrouded in mystery until now, as they have no specific sense of acceleration. In this study, a European team of scientists led by the Delft University of Technology in the N...
