Motion which starts and stops regularly.
A windshield wiper moving back and forth across a car's windshield is an example of intermittent motion. The wiper moves in a cycle of starting and stopping, creating intermittent motion to clear the windshield of rain or debris.
Examples of intermittent motion include windshield wipers on a car, pendulum clocks, and sewing machines. These devices operate cyclically with periods of rest in between movements.
Oscillate gears are used to convert continuous rotary motion into back-and-forth oscillating motion. They are commonly used in various mechanical systems, such as in clocks, toys, and automata, to create repetitive or intermittent motion.
The six basic types of motion are linear motion (straight-line motion), circular motion (rotation along a curve), reciprocating motion (back-and-forth motion), oscillating motion (repetitive swinging motion), vibratory motion (small rapid movements), and random motion (irregular movement in all directions).
The opposite of intermittent is continuous.
As intermittent means occurring at irregular intervals, a possible sentence could be:Because of the rugged terrain, the signal from the telecommunications tower was intermittent, and the lost hikers had difficulty using their mobile phones to call for help.
(Intermittent - stopping and starting at intervals) During the summer, there are intermittent dust storms in the desert. NASA received only intermittent signals from the damaged spacecraft. We made only intermittent progress on the project.
An intermittent connection would be a connection that is not constant. For example, if you have a light in your house that you have turned on and it flickers on and of, that would be intermittent, not constant light.
Intermittent Parasite is a parasite that visits and leaves the host at interval.
First check whether or not that is happening with the car in motion or at rest. Intermittent lights in motion indicates vibration problem affecting light switch, fusible link, or wiring - including grounding. In addition to the above, intermittent lights when stationary could result from intermittent alternator output of battery output. You did not give vehicle model, but intermittent sealed beam halogen lights on older car models can result from hole hole/chip in a headlight lamp that breaks the vacuum inside the lamp. If encountering repetitive low battery charge, that is an indicator of defective sealed beam headlight lamp. Defects in automatic headlight systems in recent models are best checked only by qualified service personnel.
Intermittent is an adjective describing a punctuated and or irregular set of instances. Wiper blades on a vehicle can be set to wipe intermittently, that is on a delay and not constantly active.
intermittent loss indicates you need a new sensor
