According to Jean Buridan’s equation, the momentum or “impetus” of an 8 kilogram mass moving at 48 meters per second would be:
192 kilogram-meters per second
384 kilogram-meters per second
576 kilogram-meters per second
768 kilogram-meters per second
960 kilogram-meters per second
The “mean-speed theorem” for calculating average velocity under constant acceleration, developed by Thomas Bradwardine and the Mertonian Calculators at Oxford University, is expressed algebraically as:
density = weight/volume
(m1)(v1) = (m2)(v2)
C. (vm) = 1/2 (v0 + vf)
s = (v0)(t) + 1/2 (a)(t2)
velocity = distance/time
The “mean-speed theorem” for finding average velocity under constant acceleration, proposed by the Oxford Calculators, and demonstrated geometrically by Nicole Oresme, is expressed algebraically as:
density = weight/volume
(m1)(v1) = (m2)(v2)
(vm) = 1/2 (v0 + vf)
s = (v0)(t) + 1/2 (a)(t2)
velocity = distance/time
