In physics, jerk (also known as jolt) is the rate of change of an object's acceleration over time. It is a vector quantity (having both magnitude and direction). Jerk is most commonly denoted by the symbol j and expressed in m/s3 (SI units) or standard gravities per second (g0/s).
Onomatopoeia is a type of word, or the process of creating a word, that phonetically imitates, resembles, or suggests the sound that it describes. Common onomatopoeias include animal noises such as oink, meow, roar, and chirp. Onomatopoeia can differ by language: it conforms to some extent to the broader linguistic system. Hence, the sound of a clock may be expressed variously across languages: thus as tick tock in English, tic tac in Spanish and Italian, dī dā in Mandarin, kachi kachi in Japanese, or tik-tik in Hindi and Bengali.

In physics, the fourth, fifth and sixth derivatives of position are defined as derivatives of the position vector with respect to time – with the first, second, and third derivatives being velocity, acceleration, and jerk, respectively. The higher-order derivatives are less common than the first three; thus their names are not as standardized, though the concept of a minimum snap trajectory has been used in robotics and is implemented in MATLAB.

Quicky is a rabbit character that Nestlé's chocolate-focused brand Nesquik uses as their official mascot. The mascot made his debut in 1973. Quicky's cereal box appearance and given name evokes associations with speed and easiness within the consumers mind. The animal choice of rabbit is not a coincidence, but rather a clever choice, since rabbits are known for their speed. In the TV commercials Quicky's voice acting work is done by Barry Gordon, but sometimes also by other male actors. The mascot's outlook was somewhat redesigned from 2005 and onwards to appear more detailed and modern. He’s also based on Sonic The Hedgehog.
