Examples of drive in the following topics:
-
-
-
- Drive-reduction theory distinguishes between primary and secondary drives.
- Secondary drives are associated with primary drives because the satisfaction of secondary drives indirectly satisfies primary drives.
- Secondary drives become associated with primary drives through classical conditioning.
- Drives are thought to underlie all behavior in that behaviors are only conditioned, or learned, if the reinforcement satisfies a drive.
- Individuals faced with more than one need at the same time experience multiple drives, and research has shown that multiple drives can lead to more rapid learning than a single drive.
-
- Successful entrepreneurs have a unique set of personal characteristics, including the drive to take risks and embrace failure.
- That is the meaning of drive.
- Entrepreneurial drive is something of an umbrella term for the wide variety of characteristics that compel an individual to pursue a unique and untested path relentlessly, regardless of the failures and obstacles.
- The characteristics below all overlap with drive in some way, shape, or form, to ultimately create a template for the entrepreneurial mentality:

- In the case of a sinusoidal driving force: $\frac{\mathrm{d}^2x}{\mathrm{d}t^2} + 2\zeta\omega_0\frac{\mathrm{d}x}{\mathrm{d}t} + \omega_0^2 x = \frac{1}{m} F_0 \sin(\omega t)$, where $\!
- F_0$ is the driving amplitude and $\!
- \omega$ is the driving frequency for a sinusoidal driving mechanism.
- F_0$, driving frequency $\!
- For a particular driving frequency called the resonance, or resonant frequency $\!
-
- The phenomenon of driving a system with a frequency equal to its natural frequency is called resonance.
- Say a person drives the paddle ball by moving his or her finger up and down at a certain frequency.
- The phenomenon of driving a system with a frequency equal to its natural frequency is called resonance.
- Unfortunately, heavy winds happened to drive the bridge at its natural frequency, leading to the collapse.
- The amplitude of a harmonic oscillator is a function of the frequency of the driving force.

- As an example, consider the figure depicting the number of drunk driving fatalities in 2006 and 2009 for various states:
- So, based on the linear regression model, for a 2006 value of 415 drunk driving fatalities we would expect the number of drunk driving fatalities in 2009 to be lower than 377.
- So, based on the linear regression model, for a 2006 value of 439 drunk driving fatalities we would expect the number of drunk driving fatalities for 2009 to be higher than 313.
- Therefore, this particular state is doing an exceptional job at bringing down the number of drunk driving fatalities each year, compared to other states.
- This figure shows a scatter plot, and corresponding residual plot, of the number of drunk driving fatalities in 2006 ($x$-value) and 2009 ($y$-value)
-
- Emotion is often the driving force behind motivation, both positive or negative.
- Motivation is an inner drive to behave, or act, in a certain manner.
- This drive allows us to satisfy inner conditions such as wishes, desires, and goals.
- Motivation is commonly broken into drives and motives.
- Emotion is often the driving force behind motivation, positive or negative.
-
- Innovation is a primary source of competitive advantage for companies in essentially all industries and environments, and drives forward efficiency, higher productivity, and differentiation to fill a wide variety of needs.
- One particular perspective on economics isolates innovation as a core driving force, alongside knowledge, technology, and entrepreneurship.
- This theory of innovation economics notes that the neoclassical approach (monetary accumulation driving growth) overlooks the critical aspect of the appropriate knowledge and technological capabilities.
- Technology in particular is a powerful driving force in innovative capacity, particularly as it pertains to both the evolution of innovations and the way they proliferate.
- These technological innovations generated are hypothesized to be a central driving force in the steady economic expansion of the U.S., allowing it to maintain it's place as the world's largest economy.

- Optical discs are digital storing media read in an optical disc drive using laser beam.
- They are read in an optical disc drive which directs a laser beam at the disc.
- The data is stored either by a stamping machine or laser and is read when the data is illuminated by a laser diode in the disc drive.
