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.
A physicist would measure your velocity as the limit for a period of time, zero, to get the instantaneous velocity. Changing Your Velocity When velocity is changing, the word acceleration is used. Acceleration is also a vector. You speed up if the acceleration and velocity point in the same direction. You slow down (also referred to as decelerating) if the acceleration and velocity point in opposite directions. When you accelerate or decelerate, you change your velocity by a specific amount over a specific amount of time.
