... A person sits on a piano stool holding a sizable mass in each hand. Initially, he holds his arms outstretched and spins about the axis of the stool with an angular speed of 3.74 rad/s. The moment of inertia in this case is 5.33 kg.m2. While still spinning, the person pulls his arms in to his chest, ...

... 4) Revolution of the moon around the earth. Q.2 Give the draw backs to use the period of a pendulum as a time standard. Ans. Time period of the pendulum depends upon g. since g varies at different places, so this cannot be a good standard. Secondly, the pendulum should be free from frictional effect ...

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.
