5/06 Gravitational Energy Conservation Figure 1 A
... Forces acting ON the bob are: gravity (down), and tension (along the string).These both act to produce acceleration. But only gravity does work on the bob, because the tension is always at right angles to the direction of motion (velocity vector), i.e., the cosine factor is always zero. If you pause ...

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.
