In fact it’s not tracking second order displacements at all – it’s implicitly replacing both types of pendulum by ...

... Displacement is a vector quantity. On the map, the displacement is the length of the straight line from A to B, a distance of 5 km west. (Note: since displacement is a vector you should always say what the direction is.) Distance is how far you have travelled from A to B. The unit of distance is als ...

... The weight is still not in the right direction to make the centripetal force, but the normal force has a horizontal component, which now contributes to the centripetal force. On the other hand, the frictional force is not in the horizontal direction anymore. Only the horizontal component of friction ...

Chapter 9 Rotational Motion
... Up to now, the main emphasis in the description of the motion of a body dealt with the translational motion of that body. But in addition to translating, a body can also rotate about some axis, called the axis of rotation. Therefore, for a complete description of the motion of a body we also need to ...

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.
