... When two or more objects collide, the change in the motion of each object can be described by Newton’s Second Law of Motion. By expressing Newton’s ∆p second law in the form Fnet = , it is possible to examine the effect of col ∆t lisions on the human body. When a car collides with an ‘immovable’ ob ...

... Many of those candidates who first considered only the car omitted the tension and so did not see the need for a second equation. Quite a few elementary arithmetic mistakes were seen. Often done better than part (i). Quite a few candidates used wrong exotic methods to find the tension. The dynamics ...

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.
