... a. According to Newton’s first law of motion, an objects state of motion does not change as long as the net force acting on it is zero. b. Inertia is the tendency of an object in motion to slow down and come to a complete stop if it travels far enough in the same direction. 36. What is Newton’s seco ...

... 1. In everyday use, inertia means that something is hard to get moving. Is this the only meaning it has in physics? If not, what other meaning does it have? 2. How would you determine that two objects have the same inertia? 3. When a number of different forces act on an object, is the net force nece ...

... An object that is at rest will remain at rest and an object that is moving will continue to move in a straight line with constant speed, if and only if the sum of the forces acting on that object is zero. Newton's 2nd Law acceleration of an object = sum of forces acting on that object / the mass of ...

Calculating potential energy
... Friction occurs where the wheel and axle touch or where the wheel touches a surface. Rolling motion creates less wearing away of material compared with two surfaces sliding over each other. With gears the trade-off is made between torque and rotation speed. An output gear will turn with more ...

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.
