If in this case the speed were constant, then, and this is in accord with the special theory of relativity, there would be no motion observed at all; we should again find an acceleration of 981 for a falling body.

Thus, let force 1 produce acceleration 1, then force 1 applied again will produce acceleration 1 again, or, in other words, force 2 will produce acceleration 2, and so on.

The facts bearing on this point appear to stand as follows: It is a matter of observation that the moon's mean motion is (and has for the last 3,000 years been) undergoing an acceleration, relatively to the rotation of the earth.

Not by the slightest tremor did you realize the acceleration; only by watching some stationary object as you flew past.

I was delighted to note that this induced a shamed acceleration of her pace and a tighter clutching of her skirts.

Thus, let force 1 produce acceleration 1, then force 1 applied again will produce acceleration 1 again, or, in other words, force 2 will produce acceleration 2, and so on.

In order to measure the acceleration we let the body drop alongside of a vertical measure set solidly on the ground; on this scale we read at every moment the figure that indicates the height, the only co-ordinate that is of importance in this rectilinear movement.

By mid-afternoon Stella noticed an acceleration of numbers in the logs that came hurtling lakeward.

Given the urgency of the situation, Zip had ordered the maximum acceleration that their bodies could tolerate.

He had plotted the orbit of Mars, the thrust and direction of the power units on G670, the speed of the red planet in its course and its rotation, the anticipated acceleration of the asteroid, and the time delay involved in making adjustments to its course.

Motion in the radial direction is the result of these two actions, namely, leaving the first point of contact tangentially and receiving an acceleration of its motion, so that this shall be equal to that of the second point of contact.

I've pushed the acceleration up to full!"

"The excitement of imminent physical contest and personal danger," he diagnosed swiftly, "causing acceleration of the pulse and attendant weakness of the bodya state unworthy of the balanced intellect.

And now there seemed to come a strange acceleration.

The number 981 defines the "acceleration in the field of gravitation," and this field is fully characterized by that single number; with its help we can also calculate the movement of an object hurled out in an arbitrary direction.
