1.
A mechanical device that stores and releases energy, typically made of coiled metal.
2.
The force exerted by a spring, proportional to its deformation from its equilibrium position.
3.
A principle stating that the force exerted by a spring is directly proportional to its displacement, given by F=-kx.
4.
The force that acts to bring a system back to its equilibrium position.
5.
A type of periodic motion where the restoring force is directly proportional to the displacement and acts in the direction opposite to that displacement.
6.
A theoretical model of a pendulum that assumes no air resistance and a massless, inextensible string.
7.
Equilibrium state in which the sum of all forces acting on an object is zero, resulting in no linear acceleration.
8.
Equilibrium state in which the sum of all torques acting on an object is zero, resulting in no angular acceleration.
9.
Equilibrium state in which an object is at rest and remains at rest, with both translational and rotational equilibrium achieved.
10.
A measure of the force causing an object to rotate, calculated as the product of the force and the lever arm distance from the pivot point.
11.
A lever in which the fulcrum is placed between the effort and the load (e.g., a seesaw).
12.
A lever in which the load is placed between the fulcrum and the effort (e.g., a wheelbarrow).
13.
A lever in which the effort is placed between the fulcrum and the load (e.g., tweezers).
14.
The pivot point around which a lever rotates.
