I don't think it is called anything singularly specific in scientific terms other than how you described it. Some might call it a pendulum motion or something but that's probably super simplistic and not adequate description/definition. Of course, there's a whole gamut/combo of causal physics, biomechanics and geometry that results in the phenomenon.

As Erik says, he can correct the Wrong Place mistake by replacing the ball in its original location, see 14.5a, as long as he does it before making a Stroke at the ball. I agree, and that's one of the worst aspects of being a rules official. But its also an important part, I'm sure that player learned that one rule pretty clearly, and hopefully has learned to read the NTP and listen on the first tee.

So while we're talking about physics I've got a question regarding physics and golf provides some excellent examples for what Im talking about. When you swing a stick in an arc the end of the stick will be moving faster than where you're holding it because it has to cover more distance in the same amount of time. An excellent example would be swinging a golf club. When you swing a golf club, say when you're teeing off with the driver, the head of the club is going to be going faster than the handle because it has to cover more distance in the same amount of time and the longer the club the faster the head will be going because with a longer club the head will have to cover an even greater distance in the same amount of time. That's why drivers are so long, they're meant for hitting the balls the furthest so you want the head to be going as fast as possible when it hits the ball. So I was wondering, what's it called in physics, about how when you swing a stick such as a golf club, how the head is moving faster than the handle because it has to cover more distance in the same amount of time.
