From the discovery of gravity to the first mission to defend Earth from an asteroid, here are the most important physics ...
The following simulations show how “bumps” will result in different final equilibrium states for three different loadings. Recall that for α < 1, the system is unstable. The loadings on the left two ...
A physical pendulum undergoes simple harmonic motion when displaced by a small angle. The oscillations are no longer simple harmonic motion when it is released from a large angle. The pendulum's pivot ...
