noun Physics .
1.
the lag in response exhibited by a body in reacting to changes in the forces,
2.
the phenomenon exhibited by a system, often an imperfectly elastic material, in which the reaction of the system to changes is dependent upon its past reactions to change.
The AFM wiper spring apparently reacts to certain tires' dynamic wind-up/release under the torque of acceleration.
