Forced Vibration and Resonance Natural Frequencies Nearly all
Forced Vibration and Resonance
Natural Frequencies Nearly all objects, when disturbed, will vibrate.
Natural Frequencies Objects tend to vibrate at their own particular frequency
Natural Frequencies This frequency is known as the natural frequency of the object.

Resonance
Resonance Definition: when the frequency of a vibration on an object matches the object’s natural frequency…a dramatic increase in height occurs
Resonance An object that is forced at its natural frequency will resonate (vibrate) at that frequency (with increasing amplitude if the forcing continues). Consider the forced vibration of a child on a swing – pushing at the natural frequency increases the amplitude.
Resonance An object that is forced at its natural frequency will resonate (vibrate) at that frequency (with increasing amplitude if the forcing continues). http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=n. HSGd 2 X 1 nc 8&feature=related
Resonance An object that is forced at its natural frequency will resonate (vibrate) at that frequency (with increasing amplitude if the forcing continues). The Tacoma-Narrows Bridge: http: //www. youtube. com/watch? v=xox 9 BVSu 7 Ok
Resonance n n In 1831 soldiers were ordered to “break step” across bridges to avoid producing a frequency equal to the natural frequency of the bridge. According to accounts of the time, the bridge broke apart beneath the soldiers, throwing dozens of men into the water.
Resonance: Example For example, the sound wave produced by a vibrating tuning fork will cause an identical tuning fork to start vibrating.
Examples of resonance n n n 1) breaking glass 2) bridges 3) walls (walls of Jericho) 4) radio stations 5) microwave ovens…water molecules in food vibrate and resonate and heat up
