Domain metrologymeasuring instruments
  • mõõtevahend, mis võimaldab mõõta inertsiaalset massi (erinevalt gravitatsioonimassist korrapärase tasakaalu jaoks) mikrogravitatsioonikeskkonna (kaaluta oleku keskkonna) ruumis, kus kaal on tühine (nt rahvusvahelises kosmosejaamas)
  • device that allows the measurement of inertial mass (as opposed to gravitational mass for a regular balance) that can be operated in the microgravity environment space where weight is negligible (e.g. in the International Space Station)
inertsiaalne kaal
Usage examples
  • Mõõdetav objekt asetatakse inertsiaalsele kaalule ja vedrumehhanismi käsitsi esialgne nihe käivitab võnkumise, mille järel mõõdetakse antud arvu tsüklite läbimiseks kuluvat aega ja teades vedrusüsteemi iseloomulikku vedrukonstanti ja sumbuvustegurit, saab objekti massi arvutada harmoonilise ostsillaatori mudeli järgi.
inertial balance
Usage examples
  • The object to be measured is placed in the inertial balance, and a manual initial displacement of the spring mechanism starts the oscillation. The time needed to complete a given number of cycles is measured, and knowing the characteristic spring constant and damping coefficient of the spring system, the mass of the object can be computed according to the harmonic oscillator model.
