Movement in a circle at a constant speed.
... Developing an understanding of uniform circular motion requires you to recall the distinction between speed and velocity. Speed is the magnitude, or how fast an object moves, while velocity includes both magnitude and direction. For example, consider the car in the graphic on the right. Even as it m ...

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.
