mechanical reactance

6.30 mechanical reactance. Imaginary part of a mechanical impedance. Unit, newton per (meter per second)...

mechanical resistance

6.29 mechanical resistance. Real part of a mechanical impedance. Unit, newton per (meter per second) [N/(m/s)].

mechanical impedance (at a point)

6.28 mechanical impedance (at a point). In a linear mechanical system, quotient of a force applied at a point by the resulting component of velocity in the direction of the force. Unit, newton per (meter per second) [N/(m/s)]....

motional admittance

6.27 motional admittance. Of a transducer, the loaded electric admittance minus the electric admittance when mechanically blocked. Annotation This definition is best applied to...
