Harwey, I did know that you do not have education in physics and math (yet try to judge origin of natural laws and how universe works, which I think can only be done by competent in physics). But I did not know that your answers do not come from your head, but instead you extensively use internet search. That is why your answers are often incorrect or (like in this case) not related much to what you are asked.

Aurino asked you about definition of acceleration a=dv/dt, but you in rush pulled out of the internet nearest student mechanics project about some very special mechanical device (spherical pendulum), in the description of which your search engine happily spotted the word "acceleration".

Congratulation. At least you can search for the word you are asked about in somebody's work or publication.

I have no doubt that you don't even understand much about the web page you have just posted (as it is often the case with you, by the way - you frequently post something you do not understand much), othervise you would not refer to it because it does not even have a definition of acceleration.

So, what was the point to post a web page which just contains the word "acceleration"? (There are thousands of other pages which contain this word too. Why not to list 'em all?)
