... The above condition is sufficient for a point-like object to be at its translational equilibrium. However for an object with size this is not sufficient. One more condition is needed. What is it? Let’s consider two forces equal in magnitude but in opposite direction acting on a rigid object as shown ...

In order to avoid confusion and make things as easy as possible, what we do instead is not consider this motion as a single motion in two directions, but instead as two separate, wholly unrelated ...

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.
