Pendulum-like cylinder could generate electricity from ocean water currents
The system works by placing a cylindrical tube in a water current, which triggers a physical phenomenon known as vortex ...
Converting the vibrations generated by water currents in contact with an object into energy. This is the basis of the new ...
A basic pendulum is a mass at the end of a string that swings back and forth. It seems simple, and it appears in most introductory physics textbooks. But it's not a trivial problem to solve for the ...
In the 17th century, Christiaan Huygens, inventor of the pendulum clock, noticed a curious phenomenon. When two identical pendulum clocks are mounted next to each other on a wall, their swings ...
Reaction wheels are useful things, typically used by satellites to keep themselves oriented the right way up in space. Turning the reaction wheel creates an equal and opposite torque in the spacecraft ...
