  2. Tension (physics) - Wikipedia

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

    Tension is the pulling or stretching force transmitted axially along an object such as a string, rope, chain, rod, truss member, or other object, so as to stretch or pull apart the object. In terms of force, it is the opposite of compression. Tension might also be described as the action-reaction pair of forces acting at each end of an object.

    Consider a pendulum of mass m and length ℓ, which is attached to a support with mass M, which can move along a line in the -direction. Let x {\displaystyle x} be the coordinate along the line of the support, and let us denote the position of the pendulum by the angle θ {\displaystyle \theta } from the vertical.

  4. Hooke's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hooke's_law

    In physics, Hooke's law is an empirical law which states that the force (F) needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance (x) scales linearly with respect to that distance—that is, F s = kx, where k is a constant factor characteristic of the spring (i.e., its stiffness), and x is small compared to the total possible deformation of the spring.

  5. Atwood machine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atwood_machine

    An equation for the acceleration can be derived by analyzing forces. Assuming a massless, inextensible string and an ideal massless pulley, the only forces to consider are: tension force (T), and the weight of the two masses (W 1 and W 2). To find an acceleration, consider the forces affecting each individual mass.

  6. Capstan equation - Wikipedia

    where is the applied tension on the line, is the resulting force exerted at the other side of the capstan, is the coefficient of friction between the rope and capstan materials, and is the total angle swept by all turns of the rope, measured in radians (i.e., with one full turn the angle =).

  7. Moving load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moving_load

    Consider a massless string, which is a particular case of moving inertial load problem. The first to solve the problem was Smith. [7] The analysis will follow the solution of Fryba. [4] Assuming ρ =0, the equation of motion of a string under a moving mass can be put into the following form [citation needed]

  8. String theory - Wikipedia

    In other words, a system of strongly interacting D-branes in string theory is indistinguishable from a black hole. Strominger and Vafa analyzed such D-brane systems and calculated the number of different ways of placing D-branes in spacetime so that their combined mass and charge is equal to a given mass and charge for the resulting black hole.

  9. Relativistic Lagrangian mechanics - Wikipedia

    However, the energy of a moving particle is different from non-relativistic mechanics. It is instructive to look at the total relativistic energy of a free test particle. An observer in the lab frame defines events by coordinates r and coordinate time t , and measures the particle to have coordinate velocity v = d r / dt .
