  2. Restoring force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Restoring_force

    The force responsible for restoring original size and shape is called the restoring force. [1] [2] An example is the action of a spring. An idealized spring exerts a force proportional to the amount of deformation of the spring from its equilibrium length, exerted in a direction oppose the deformation.

  4. Simple harmonic motion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_harmonic_motion

    In mechanics and physics, simple harmonic motion (sometimes abbreviated as SHM) is a special type of periodic motion an object experiences by means of a restoring force whose magnitude is directly proportional to the distance of the object from an equilibrium position and acts towards the equilibrium position.

  5. Harmonic oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_oscillator

    Due to frictional force, the velocity decreases in proportion to the acting frictional force. While in a simple undriven harmonic oscillator the only force acting on the mass is the restoring force, in a damped harmonic oscillator there is in addition a frictional force which is always in a direction to oppose the motion.

  6. Tension (physics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tension_(physics)

    Tension (as a transmitted force, as an action-reaction pair of forces, or as a restoring force) is measured in newtons in the International System of Units (or pounds-force in Imperial units). The ends of a string or other object transmitting tension will exert forces on the objects to which the string or rod is connected, in the direction of ...

  7. Centrifugal force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_force

    In order to have a net centripetal force, the magnitude of the restoring force of the spring must be less than the magnitude of force of gravity. This reduced restoring force in the spring is reflected on the scale as less weight — about 0.3% less at the equator than at the poles. [19]

  8. Duffing equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duffing_equation

    controls the amount of non-linearity in the restoring force; if =, the Duffing equation describes a damped and driven simple harmonic oscillator, γ {\displaystyle \gamma } is the amplitude of the periodic driving force; if γ = 0 {\displaystyle \gamma =0} the system is without a driving force, and

  9. Anharmonicity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anharmonicity

    An oscillator is a physical system characterized by periodic motion, such as a pendulum, tuning fork, or vibrating diatomic molecule.Mathematically speaking, the essential feature of an oscillator is that for some coordinate x of the system, a force whose magnitude depends on x will push x away from extreme values and back toward some central value x 0, causing x to oscillate between extremes.
