Rotational or circular motion gives rise to, for example, the familiar centrifugal force, the presence of which may be recognized without reference to changes in motion relative to any surrounding system of material objects.8 Newton illustrates the significance of this step in his position with his famous «bucket experiment» (PNP 10f).9

Back then, most researchers were working on making supramolecular systems that were able to perform either linear or rotational motions — «but Jean - Marie said, when I arrived in the lab, «You know, the most important mechanical motion in the world is the coiling motion of the proteins in the biological world,»» Barboiu recalls.

Although such measurements have been performed in much larger scale systems, the latest results were achieved within a micrometer - sized waveguide — a thin wire that guides light — and demonstrated the use of optical torque to induce rotational motion in a microscale mechanical device.

In physics, torque can informally be thought of as «rotational force» or «angular force» which causes a change in rotational motion.

The chemists then studied the intermediate using microwave spectroscopy, which revealed details of its rotational motions.

Shegelski: Actually I don't know if I'd say that, but I'd say that it allowed us to investigate all possible motions that we could think of — within reason, of course, we can always do much more, — but for example, you can take a curling rock and simply rotate it and don't slide it and just have it go on a pure rotational motion, so we could look at that on flat ice as opposed to the pebbled ice.

However, there is also a temperature for the internal vibrations of a molecule, as well as for the rotational motion around their own axes.

This rules out reciprocal motion — such as the way a fish uses their fins — so the microswimmers must rely on nonreciprocal motion similar to that of bacterial flagella, in which rotational motion is converted to translational motion.

The four distinguishing characteristics of the spirals are: (a) they have more orderly, rotational motion than random motion (the rotation refers to the disk as a whole and means that the star orbits are closely confined to a narrow range of angles and are fairly circular); (b) they have some or a lot of gas and dust between the stars; (c) this means they can have new star formation occuring in the disk, particularly in the spiral arms; and (d) they have a spiral structure.

Where winds are blowing east, that motion adds speed to the planet's already high rotational speed of about 43,000 kilometers per hour (27,000 miles per hour).

The pectorals are predominantly used to control the movement of the arm, with the contractions of the pectoralis major pulling on the humerus to create lateral, vertical, or rotational motion.

Each stroke leads to greater range of motion around the shoulder joint and through the torso and hips, which is particular helpful for sports that demand rotational motion like baseball, golf, or even the throwing motion in football.

Your bodies are designed to move along three different planes of motion: side to side, forward and back, and rotational.

You should be prepared to feel sore after your first mace workouts — the rotational movements and off - set loading engage many, if not all, of the muscles responsible for controlling motion of the scapulae on the rib cage.

Here's the problem: Since the weight never travels up or down and remains in the same horizontal plane of motion, the rotator cuff — which is supposedly responsible for directing rotational movements at the shoulder — never gets activated.

The rotational push - up (a.k.a. T push - up) is great for hitting the obliques because of the twisting motion (like russian twists).
