User talk:Dennismelton/Perivity

Is known?
It's written on the subject page that "Perivity is known as the perpendicular component to gravity..." This implies that "perivity" is a standard term. Can you cite a reference for it? It's fine if this is your own coined term -- we can use neologisms on Wikiversity -- but implying that the concept is known, more than to the author, is misleading and should be avoided. What's the case here? --Abd 04:45, 14 January 2011 (UTC)
