This model simulates the mechanical behavior of a spring and damper system shown in Figure 14.80. Figure 14.80: Spring and Damper System Model A mass is hung from a spring with spring constant K. The ...

[Stoppi] always has interesting blog posts and videos, even when we don’t understand all the German in them. The latest? Computer simulation of wave propagation (Google Translate link), which, if ...

Forces may change the shape of an object. An elastic object, such as a spring, stores elastic potential energy when stretched or squashed. The extension of an elastic object is directly proportional ...

Pressure is a measure of how concentrated a force is. The amount of pressure exerted on an object depends on the force applied and the surface area it is spread over. Force diagrams and resultant ...
