... Newton’s 1st Law: An object will stay in motion unless acted upon by a force. SHM is the same: oscillations will last forever in the absence of additional forces. Common force of friction often “damps” oscillations and brings them to a stop. ...

... Ofcourse there are great differences in ability between individual athletes, but by analysing the graph in terms of the concepts of power and energy we certainly gain a much deeper understanding of it. We also begin to understand why a long-distance runner is usually lightly built and has light mus ...

... equilibrium position and choose the positive x -direction to the right in the Figure 23.2. In the figure, x > 0 corresponds to an extended spring, and x < 0 to a compressed spring. Define x(t ) to be the position of the object with respect to the equilibrium position. The force acting on the spring ...

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.
