👉 In physics and engineering, "nuisances" are objects or phenomena that obstruct the flow of motion or cause interference with movement. These can be physical objects like particles, waves, currents, etc., as well as non-physical entities like noise, electromagnetic radiation, or even sound waves. For example: - A noisy street is a nuisance. - A loudspeaker in a room creates a "nuisance" for people to listen to the speaker's music.
