The Atwood machine, or Atwood's machine, consists of two masses on either side of a pulley, with the masses connected by a strong that extends over the pulley. Rev. George Atwood created this machine in 1784 as a laboratory experiment, and it is commonly used to teach the laws of [[physics]] to students today. Unless the masses are identical, they experience uniform [[acceleration]].
