Biological Motion : A History of Life
A transdisciplinary investigation of biological motion as the most profound definition of living existenceBiological Motion studies the foundational relationship between motion and life. To answer the question, ';What is Life?, Wellmann engages in a transdisciplinary investigation of motion as the most profound definition of living existence. For decades, information and structure have predominated the historiography of the life sciences with its prevailing focus on DNA structure and function. Now more than ever, motion is a crucial theme of basic biological research. Tracing motion from Aristotle's animal soul to molecular motors, to medical soft robotics and mathematical analysis, prize-winning historian of science, Janina Wellmann locates biological motion at the intersection of knowledge domains and scientific and cultural practices. She offers signposts to mark the sites where researchers, technologies, ideas, and practices opened up new paths in the constitution of the phenomenon of motion. An ambitious rethinking of the life sciences, Biological Motion uncovers the secret life of movement and offers a new account of what it means to be alive.

Lucretius III : A History of Motion
Offers a new theory of history through an original reading of Lucretius' De Rerum NaturaFor Lucretius, history means something surprisingly different than we ordinarily think.Instead of thinking of history in terms of time, he thought of it in terms of motion.This book unpacks the implications of this unique kinetic philosophy of history.In the final volume of his trilogy on De Rerum Natura, Thomas Nail argues that in books five and six, Lucretius described a world born to die.What does it mean to live in such a world? De Rerum Natura provides a guidebook to answering this question.

Why is uniform circular motion an accelerated motion?
Uniform circular motion is considered an accelerated motion because the direction of the velocity vector is constantly changing, even though the magnitude of the velocity may remain constant. This change in direction results in an acceleration towards the center of the circle, known as centripetal acceleration. This acceleration is necessary to keep an object moving in a circular path, and it is what distinguishes uniform circular motion from linear motion. Therefore, even though the speed may be constant, the change in direction of the velocity vector results in an acceleration, making uniform circular motion an accelerated motion.
-
Is a circular motion a uniform or uniformly accelerated motion?
A circular motion is a uniformly accelerated motion. This is because the velocity of an object in circular motion is constantly changing as it moves around the circle, due to the change in direction of its velocity vector. This change in velocity indicates that the motion is not uniform, but rather uniformly accelerated. The acceleration in circular motion is directed towards the center of the circle and is called centripetal acceleration.
-
How does the vertical motion occur in horizontal projectile motion?
In horizontal projectile motion, the vertical motion occurs due to the force of gravity acting on the object. While the object is moving horizontally, it is also being pulled downward by the force of gravity, causing it to follow a curved path. As a result, the object's vertical position changes over time, even though its horizontal velocity remains constant. This combination of horizontal and vertical motion results in the characteristic parabolic trajectory of a projectile.
-
What is the difference between linear motion and uniform linear motion?
Linear motion refers to the movement of an object in a straight line, while uniform linear motion specifically refers to the movement of an object in a straight line at a constant speed. In linear motion, the object may change its speed or direction, whereas in uniform linear motion, the object maintains a constant speed and direction. Uniform linear motion is a specific type of linear motion that has a consistent velocity throughout the motion.

Culture and Circulation : Literature in Motion in Early Modern India
Culture and Circulation takes an innovative approach to early modern Indian literature.The authors foreground the complex hybridity of literary genres and social milieus, capturing elements that have eluded traditional literary history.In this book, jointly edited by Thomas de Bruijn and Allison Busch, Hindi authors rub shoulders with their Persian counterparts in the courts of Mughal India; the fame of Mirabai, a poetess from Rajasthan, travels to Punjab; the sayings of Kabir are found to be as difficult to pin down as the wandering holy men who transmitted them.

Bodies in Motion : A Religious History of Sports in America
Are sports the new American religion? Arthur Remillard, a seasoned scholar of religion and sports, hears this question frequently.Often, it is prompted by the contrast between the waning of traditional religious institutions and the thriving, cash-rich world of sports.Stadiums bustle with boundless enthusiasm, exuberant rituals, and potent symbols.Churches no longer seem to. According to Remillard, however, this question reduces "religion" to only its institutional form, thereby overlooking the many unscripted ways that sports have assumed sacred significance throughout American history.Bodies in Motion shines a bright light on the ways that sports have allowed individuals and communities to develop, describe, and proclaim their most deeply held and strongly defended values and beliefs.From prizefighting and baseball to distance running and bowling, Remillard emphasizes that the fundamental element of sports is the human body in motion-the body that strives, struggles, and sweats on the field of play.From here, participants, observers, and organizers do the creative work of inscribing meaning onto these motions, of elevating them from the ordinary to the extraordinary.Along the way, these interpretations shape and are shaped by broader societal forces at play, including race, class, gender, ethnicity, and nationality. Engaging and thought-provoking, Bodies in Motion shows how sacred activities have been intricately entangled in athletic activities, expanding how we think about religion and its meaning and uses.Whether you're an avid sports fan, a reader of American history, or simply curious about the intersection of religion and sports, this book promises to show you new ways of understanding this fascinating subject.

What is the uniform motion and the uniformly accelerated motion here?
In the given scenario, the uniform motion refers to the car traveling at a constant speed of 60 km/h for 2 hours. This means the car is moving at a constant velocity without any change in speed or direction. The uniformly accelerated motion occurs when the car increases its speed from 60 km/h to 90 km/h in 10 seconds. This represents a constant acceleration, as the car's velocity is changing at a uniform rate over time.
-
What is the difference between uniform motion and uniformly accelerated motion?
Uniform motion is when an object travels in a straight line at a constant speed, while uniformly accelerated motion is when an object's velocity changes at a constant rate. In uniform motion, the object covers equal distances in equal intervals of time, while in uniformly accelerated motion, the object's velocity increases or decreases by the same amount in each unit of time. Uniform motion can be represented by a straight line on a distance-time graph, while uniformly accelerated motion is represented by a curved line.

What is the difference between uniformly accelerated motion and uniform motion?
Uniformly accelerated motion is when an object's velocity changes at a constant rate over time, resulting in a change in speed or direction. On the other hand, uniform motion is when an object travels in a straight line at a constant speed without any changes in velocity. In uniformly accelerated motion, the object's acceleration remains constant, while in uniform motion, the object's velocity remains constant.
