Motion With Constant Acceleration
... Record a set of data where you start with the cart near the pulley, and you give it a quick push so it moves away from the pulley. From one of the graphs, determine the acceleration for the motion when the cart is moving away from the pulley. Compare this with the acceleration you measure for the ca ...

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.
