Sentence examples for a test mass from inspiring English sources
Long compared the maximum attractions of two rings upon a test mass hung from the arm of a torsion balance.
In one, conducted by the American physicist Riley Newman and his colleagues, a test mass hung on a torsion balance was moved around in a long hollow cylinder.
In the other experiment, performed in Cambridge, Eng., by Y.T. Chen and associates, the attractions of two solid cylinders of different mass were balanced against a third cylinder so that only the separations of the cylinders had to be known; it was not necessary to know the distances of any from a test mass.
In these sensors, a Test Mass (TM) falls freely within a system of electrodes used for readout and control.
In the gravity sensor of a superconducting gravimeter, a superconducting sphere as a test mass is levitated in a magnetic field.
These and related studies proposed that otolith growth is actively adjusted via a feedback mechanism to produce a test mass of the appropriate physical capacity.
Each accelerometer contains a pair of test masses A-A, A-B, A-C, B-C (inner mass - outer mass) made of three different materials A, B, C with decreasing densities.
This force is an observable in the sense that a unit test mass at r will be accelerated towards the central mass by this force with acceleration F. The potential field U becomes more negative as r gets smaller.
The ONERA sensor to be used will harness a cubic test mass.
We use the results of this analysis to estimate the magnitude of differential acceleration noise coupling to a STEP test mass pair due to spacecraft displacement and find the following constraint δc≤10−3x··10−15ms−2/Hz12m200g1 mGBr21 cma2Hz−12 where δ is the spacecraft displacement amplitude spectral density, c is the spacing between superconducting surfaces of net surface area a2.
The watt balance is essentially a single-pan weighing scale that measures the electric power necessary to oppose the weight of a kilogram test mass as it is pulled by Earth's gravity.
