... in direction. Although there are two objects involved, each object exerts one force and experiences one force. The wall does not move because it has a lot of inertia. b. When the fuel burns, the engine exerts a downward force on the exhaust gases. The gases exert an equal and opposite upward force o ...

... A small block slides inside a hoop of radius r. The walls of the hoop are frictionless but the horizontal floor has a coefficient of sliding friction of m. The block’s initial velocity is v and is entirely tangential. How far, in angle around the circle does the block travel before coming to rest ? ...

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.
