Potential and Kinetic Energy
... Potential energy is stored energy. The formula for the potential energy of an object is: Ep = mgh where m equals mass in kilograms, g is the acceleration of gravity, and h equals the height of the object. The mass (m) of the object times the acceleration of gravity (g) is the same as the weight of t ...

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.
