  2. Wig wag (washing machines) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wig_wag_(washing_machines)

    A vertical-axis washing machine has two mechanisms: a central agitator for washing and a drum for spinning, both driven by the same motor and controlled independently by clutches to the belt drive. The wig-wag is mounted atop the washing machine's transmission, where it oscillates back and forth like a railroad signaling wigwag (hence the name ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whirlpool

    A whirlpool is a body of rotating water produced by opposing currents or a current running into an obstacle. [ 1 ] [ clarification needed ] Small whirlpools form when a bath or a sink is draining. More powerful ones formed in seas or oceans may be called maelstroms ( / ˈ m eɪ l s t r ɒ m , - r ə m / MAYL -strom, -⁠strəm ).

    Higher spin speeds, along with larger tub diameters, remove more water, leading to faster drying. On the other hand, the need for ironing can be reduced by not using the spin cycle in the washing machine. If a heated clothes dryer is used after the wash and spin, energy use is reduced if more water has been removed from clothes. However, faster ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motorboating_(electronics)

    The amplifying devices in audio and radio equipment are vulnerable to a variety of feedback problems, which can cause distinctive noise in the output. The term motorboating is applied to oscillations whose frequency is below the range of hearing, from 1 to 10 hertz , [ 3 ] so the individual oscillations are heard as pulses.

    The tube length determines whether the tube acoustic pressure or velocity is the dominant influence on the frequency of the tube. Simple models of organ-pipe resonance is based on open–open pipe resonance ( λ = L /2), but corrections must be made to take into account that one end of the pipe radiates into the surrounding medium, and the ...

    On July 15, 1993, a 34-year-old mentally disabled woman suffered severe head and internal injuries after falling 15 to 20 feet (4.6 to 6.1 m) from the spinning gondola ride to the ground. She was hospitalized in critical condition, and an investigation determined that the woman managed to climb out of her lap bar while the ride was still in motion.
