Linear motion, circular motion and vibrational motion

Linear motion Linear motion, also called uniform motion or rectilinear motion, motion in one spatial dimension.  According to Newton’s first law (also known as the principle of inertia), a body with no net force acting on it will either remain at rest or continue to move with uniform speed in a straight line, according to … Read more

Motion, laws of motion

Motion Motion is a change in position of an object with respect to time. Motion is typically described in terms of displacement, distance, velocity, acceleration, time and speed. The branch of physics which deals with the study of motion of material objects is called mechanics. Mechanics is divided into following branches. (i) Statics : Statics … Read more

Centripetal Drainage Pattern

Centripetal drainage pattern is a type of drainage pattern in which the streams converge towards a central point. This type of drainage pattern is often found in areas with a circular or elliptical shape, such as in the crater of a volcano. The following are some of the subtopics related to centripetal drainage pattern: Drainage … Read more

Types of Drainage Pattern

Here is a list of types of drainage patterns: Dendritic Radial Trellis Parallel Rectangular Annular Centripetal Divergent Convergent Anular Centripetal Divergent Convergent Drainage patterns are the way that rivers and streams flow over the land. They are determined by the underlying geology, climate, and vegetation. There are six main types of drainage patterns: dendritic, radial, … Read more
