linear acceleration in a sentence

Examples

1. Some reaction rockets can at least temporarily provide enough acceleration to overcome Earth's gravity and could thus provide linear acceleration to emulate Earth's g-force.
2. where \ omega is the angular velocity of the station, r is its radius, and a is linear acceleration at any point along its perimeter.
3. Nevertheless, constant linear acceleration is desirable since in addition to providing artificial gravity it could theoretically provide relatively short flight times around the solar system.
4. Although the perception is fairly accurate when subjects are exposed to angular acceleration in roll, and during linear acceleration along the body transversal and longitudinal axes.
5. The vestibule is a region of the inner ear which contains the saccule and the utricle, each of which contain a macula to detect linear acceleration.
6. Changes in linear acceleration, angular acceleration, and gravity are detected by the vestibular system and the proprioceptive receptors, and then compared in the brain with visual information.
7. Stimulation of the otolith organs occurs when gravitational forces or linear accelerations cause movement of the otolith membrane, the otoliths, and the hair cells of the macula.
8. But to return to my original question, is translational acceleration basically the same thing as linear acceleration ? talk 14 : 02, 16 April 2011 ( UTC)
9. :: Just incidentally, in aviation such high G-forces are usually associated with breaks rather than linear acceleration ( even the space shuttle doesn't accelerate at 5g ).
10. The macula is also sensitive to linear acceleration as the inertia possessed by the statoconia can also shift the gelatinous layer during increases and decreases in linear velocity.
