|---|---|
| kater's pendulumnoun | (physics, historical) A reversible free-swinging pendulum used as a gravimeter. |
| ballistic pendulumnoun | An obsolete device for measuring a bullet's momentum, from which it is possible to calculate the velocity and kinetic energy. |
| simple harmonic motionnoun | (mathematics, mechanics) oscillating motion (as of a pendulum) in which the acceleration of the oscillator has an equal magnitude but opposite direction to the displacement of it from the equilibrium position. |
| perpetual motion machinenoun | (physics, pseudoscience, science fiction) A hypothetical, pseudoscientific device that exhibits perpetual motion, especially one that does useful work with no input of energy. |
| superstringnoun | (computing) The string (sequence of text characters) that contains a substring. |
| perpetual motionnoun | (physics) The motion of some hypothetical device that continues forever with no external input of energy, in violation of the laws of thermodynamics. |
| static equilibriumnoun | (physics) Any system in which the sum of the forces, and torque, on each particle of the system is zero; mechanical equilibrium. |
| stringnoun | (countable, uncountable) A long, thin and flexible structure made from threads twisted together. |
