|
| Describing a system in a state in which a small change induces a restoring force to oppose the change and return the system to its initial state. For example, a ball resting in the valley between two hills is a stable system. If the ball were to roll from equilibrium to a higher position, its weight would pull it back towards the equilibrium. Compare unstable. |
