Oh yes, this actually makes sense now. You explained it very nicely, and yes I'm familiar with differentiation, just wasn't quite sure what happened in a geometrical sense. Anyways, thank you for your help :)

I'm trying to understand the geometrical meaning of acceleration in circular motion. When I consider a particle moving in a circular path, I can clearly see that the acceleration vector can be composed of a tangential and radial component. But since the change in velocity happens over a period...

Yes, thank you very much, it all makes more sense now :)

Thank you for your answer, this totally makes sense because considering each component separately I can understand it in the same manner as in one dimension. Yes you are right on the understanding of the derivative, I was just considering the geometric interpretation of it :)

So let's assume an object moves along a straight line relative to some fixed origin. Clearly we can study this motion with the help of a position vs. time graph which shows how the position varies as time goes on. Now, as far as I understand, the slope of this graph at any time t gives the...

Once uni-assist processed my documents, they put them directly onto my Alma-Web portal. The university has direct acess to this portal, and can therefore process them through almaweb. However, under "my documents" in my almaweb account, I had to sign a piece of paper confirming my application...

Hey there, I've applied for the IPSP-program at uni leipzig and got accepted after the administration at the university looked through my documents, So I can provide some information which could be helpful to you. For me, after uni-assist forwarded my application to leipzig university, they...
