What detects linear acceleration in the ear?

The utricle and macula are a part of the vestibular. Macula responds to linear acceleration and deceleration. So the vestibular detects linear acceleration.

Is there any difference between angular acceleration and radial acceleration?

Yes. A ngular acceleration is to do with something turning. Radial acceleration is linear acceleration perpendicular to the angular acceleration.


What are similarities of uniform linear acceleration to acceleration due to gravity?

inertia and potential energy


Is a constant acceleration graph a linear equation?

Not necessarily. The equation of a projectile, moving under constant acceleration (due to gravity) is a parabola - a non-linear equation.


The slope of a speed-time linear graph is .?

acceleration


What is the acceleration?

Acceleration is the change in velocity with time, for linear (constant) acceleration it is calculated by: (End Speed -Start Speed)/time taken


Is v linear?

If v (velocity) is constant, then it's straight (linear). If v is changing due to acceleration, then it is a curve (non-linear)


How do you find linear?

acceleration = force in Newtons/mass in kg


What is the relation between force and acceleration if you keep the mass the same?

It is linear. The acceleration will be proportional to the force. F = mA

Gravity and linear acceleration are sensed in the?

The saccule and utricle maintain stability of the head and body when it's motionless or in linear movement.
