Example sentences for "relative motion"

  • What appears in our dynamical treatises is Newton's doctrine of relative motion based on the doctrine of differential motion in absolute space.

  • This case yields the ordinary formulae for transformation in relative motion, namely those formulae which are to be found in every elementary book on dynamics.

  • This is the theory of relative motion; the common matrix is the bond which connects the motion of β in space α with the motions of α in space β.

  • The filaments would have a relative motion, which would make the influence of internal friction in the fluid too important to be neglected.

  • The fluid moving in contact with the surface can only have a relative motion parallel to the surface, while the pressure between the fluid and solid, if friction is neglected, is normal to the surface.
