... The speed of the block is maximum when it passes the equilibrium, thus we have (1/2)kA² = (1/2)mv² ⇒ v = √(k/m)A = √(800/2)×0.15 = 3.00 m/s (We take the positive root because speed is the magnitude of velocity. Always check if you’re using SI units.) ...

... It is conceptually better to think about the Centripetal force that is calculated from the formula as a requirement. If you meet the requirement, then you have circular motion at the radius and speed used in the formula. If you do not meet the requirement, then the object moves into a larger curve ...

... 6. Set the horizontal position of the photogate so that the hanging mass hits the floor before the glider’s flag passes through the photogate. If the hanging mass would hit the floor after the flag passes through the photogate, try moving the photogate or adjusting the length of the string. 7. Re-ad ...

... Imagine that a brick of mass m is lifted a vertical distance h. The work done to raise the brick would be W = F∙d cos θ, where θ is 0°. The force required to lift the brick at a constant speed would be equal to its weight, mg. Substituting the variables, then the work done on the brick is W = mgh. I ...

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.
