SECTION - V...  RAD Definitions

 

 

Tid-bits...

"If you can't define something, what makes you think it exists?" 

"If you define it, you can't argue about it."

    [The following have some definitions I have changed to fit my outlook on physics. Also there are definitions sometimes dimmed or skewed with time, and may need a little fresh emphasis placed upon them.  And finally there are definitions I felt just go with the theme of the material presented... RAD]

 
§Acceleration (Refer to text, Acceleration):
A body is said to be accelerated if it is going faster and faster, or going slower and slower (deceleration), or it is moving in curvature.  This acceleration is whenever the body has a force cause, in force action.  When the force stops the acceleration stops.
§Affect (dictionary choice):
To produce an effect.
§Alpha Wave (dictionary):

1. An opinion put forth that is unfounded, and has no basis to establish its validity.
2. Anything taken for granted based on common usage.
§Attraction (Refer to text on Pressure):
An assumed unknown explanation for the method of an action unexplained. 
§Cause (dictionary choice):
Something that brings about a result.
§Change of State (RAD):
The resultant of whenever a body or particle is accelerated with a differential of pressure as the action of a named force that changes its configuration in whole, or partially; and or changes its direction of motion.

§Mass, At Rest (RAD modification):
The amount of resistance opposed to an applied force from a single direction that accelerates the at rest state of a free floating body in space in a common frame of reference,  or the amount of resistance opposed to an applied force perpendicular to the direction of an accelerating free floating body in a common frame of reference. 
§Mass, In Motion (RAD Interpretation)
:
An amount of resistance encountered from a body being accelerated in a single direction through Space, minus the at rest mass. (Refer to text, Mass.)
§Matter (... exactly what is matter__ is unknown; so I will go with):
Any phenomenon having gravitational weight, and takes up space.

§Momentum (RAD interpretation, classical)
:
For a fixed time frame, when force(s) are affected upon a body to alter its state of rest or motion to result in a new state of rest or motion, and this change is measured from whence and where it was forced, to its new point of measurement is a vector line representation referred to as magnitude.  The actions carrying a body along this vector line is called the momentum.

§Speed (dictionary):
The ratio of a distance covered by a body to the time taken.  Speed is a scalar quantity, i.e. no direction is given. Example: ten miles per hour. (Note speed is an average. You can go faster or slower in any combination, as long as you travel only ten miles in one hour; it is the same as if you went exactly ten miles per hour on your speedometer for one hour, and did travel ten miles in one hour.)

§Velocity (dictionary):
The ratio of a distance covered by a body to the time taken, and only in straight direction.  In other words, speed, in some required single direction.  Example: ten miles per hour east.  (again note, the speed part of velocity is an average.)

Needless accumulation of words.
§Vernacular (dictionary):
1. Language or dialect of a particular country.
