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.
This equation can be used to calculate the acceleration of the object whose motion is depicted by the velocity-time data table above. The velocity-time data in the table shows that the object has an acceleration of 10 m/s/s. The calculation is shown below. Acceleration values are expressed in units of velocity/time. Typical acceleration units include the following: m/s/s mi/hr/s km/hr/s m/s 2. These units may seem a little awkward to a beginning physics student. Yet they are very reasonable units when you begin to consider the definition and equation for acceleration. The reason for the units becomes obvious upon examination of the acceleration equation. Since acceleration is a velocity change over a time, the units on acceleration are velocity units divided by time units - thus (m/s)/s or (mi/hr)/s. The (m/s)/s unit can be mathematically simplified to m/s2.
