The definition of divergent is things that move in different directions or that are far apart from each other. 1  An example of divergent are the ideologies of a liberal democrat and a conservative republican. 2  An example of divergent is a path that splits off into two different directions.
Alternatively divide the acceleration value by 2Î»f to get velocity and divide the velocity by 2Î»f to get. displacement. For the spreadsheet wise, velocity [2Î»f] is â6 dB per octave slope applied to the acceleration graph and. displacement [2Î»f] x [2Î»f] is a -12 dB per octave slope.
It is clear from Eq. (403) that, in the former case, the acceleration of the cylinder down the slope is retarded by friction. Note, however, that the frictional force merely acts to convert translational kinetic energy into rotational kinetic energy, and does not dissipate energy.
