Thanks for using this online dictionary, we have been helping millions of people improve their use of the english language with its free online services. English definition of equilibrium is as below...

Counterpoise :: Counterpoise (n.) The relation of two weights or forces which balance each other; equilibrium; equiponderance.

Balance :: Balance (n.) The state of being in equipoise; equilibrium; even adjustment; steadiness.

#NAME? :: -tre (n.) The point of intersection of a vertical line through the center of gravity of the fluid displaced by a floating body which is tipped through a small angle from its position of equilibrium, and the inclined line which was vertical through the center of gravity of the body when in equilibrium..

Hydrostatics :: Hydrostatics (n.) The branch of science which relates to the pressure and equilibrium of nonelastic fluids, as water, mercury, etc.; the principles of statics applied to water and other liquids..

Equilibriums :: Equilibriums (pl. ) of Equilibriu.

Station :: Station (n.) A state of standing or rest; equilibrium.

Tide :: Tide (prep.) The alternate rising and falling of the waters of the ocean, and of bays, rivers, etc., connected therewith. The tide ebbs and flows twice in each lunar day, or the space of a little more than twenty-four hours. It is occasioned by the attraction of the sun and moon (the influence of the latter being three times that of the former), acting unequally on the waters in different parts of the earth, thus disturbing their equilibrium. A high tide upon one side of the earth is accompanied

Librate :: Librate (v. i.) To vibrate as a balance does before resting in equilibrium; hence, to be poised..

Poise :: Poise (v. i.) To hang in equilibrium; to be balanced or suspended; hence, to be in suspense or doubt..

Statically :: Statical (a.) Pertaining to bodies at rest or in equilibrium.

Amplitude :: Amplitude (n.) The extent of a movement measured from the starting point or position of equilibrium; -- applied especially to vibratory movements.

Hemastatics :: Hemastatics (n.) Laws relating to the equilibrium of the blood in the blood vessels.

Vibration :: Vibration (n.) A limited reciprocating motion of a particle of an elastic body or medium in alternately opposite directions from its position of equilibrium, when that equilibrium has been disturbed, as when a stretched cord or other body produces musical notes, or particles of air transmit sounds to the ear. The path of the particle may be in a straight line, in a circular arc, or in any curve whatever..

Equipoise :: Equipoise (n.) Equality of weight or force; hence, equilibrium; a state in which the two ends or sides of a thing are balanced, and hence equal; state of being equally balanced; -- said of moral, political, or social interests or forces..

Libration Point :: Libration point (n.) any one of five points in the plane of a system of two large astronomical bodies orbiting each other, as the Earth-moon system, where the gravitational pull of the two bodies on an object are approximately equal, and in opposite directions. A solid object moving in the same velocity and direction as such a libration point will remain in gravitational equilibrium with the two bodies of the system and not fall toward either body..

Overbalance :: Overbalance (v. t.) To cause to lose balance or equilibrium.

Equilibrium :: Equilibrium (n.) Equality of weight or force; an equipoise or a state of rest produced by the mutual counteraction of two or more forces.

Indifferency :: Indifferency (n.) Absence of interest in, or influence from, anything; unconcernedness; equilibrium; indifferentism; indifference..

Poise :: Poise (v.) The state of being balanced by equal weight or power; equipoise; balance; equilibrium; rest.

Steem :: Steelyard (n.) A form of balance in which the body to be weighed is suspended from the shorter arm of a lever, which turns on a fulcrum, and a counterpoise is caused to slide upon the longer arm to produce equilibrium, its place upon this arm (which is notched or graduated) indicating the weight; a Roman balance; -- very commonly used also in the plural form, steelyards..
