Position, velocity, acceleration, jerk, snap, crackle, pop…
But "abasement"—the integral of position—is new to me! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absement (also: absity, abseleration, abserk, absnap, etc…)

It's fun to think about where you'd actually care about this when designing a system. klotza.blogspot.com/2017/10/applic suggests the hydraulophone, where you make a tone by pushing down on a stream of water (tone propto both position and duration of blockage).

Nice example here: wearcam.org/absement/examp
Imagine a communications network which charges you $1/mile/hour—i.e. if you're twice as far away, you pay double per unit time. That's basically an abasement rate.
