Coupling (physics)

Quality 0.00 · 0 views · Updated 27 days ago

In physics, coupling is when two objects are interacting with each other, that is they are not independent. In classical mechanics, coupling is a connection between two oscillating systems, such as pendulums connected by a spring. The connection affects the oscillatory pattern of both objects. In particle physics, two particles are coupled if they are connected by one of the four fundamental forces.
