... T= period of SHM in s m= mass in kg K= spring constant in N/m Factors affecting the period of an oscillation for a spring: If mass is increased the period increases If spring constant increases (stiffer spring) period decreases. The period of a spring and a pendulum does not depend on the displaceme ...

Hunting oscillation

Hunting oscillation is a self-oscillation, usually unwanted, about an equilibrium. The expression came into use in the 19th century and describes how a system ""hunts"" for equilibrium. The expression is used to describe phenomena in such diverse fields as electronics, aviation, biology, and railway engineering.
