Resonance • When we apply a periodically varying force to a system that can • oscillate, the system is forced to oscillate with a frequency equal • to the frequency of the applied force (driving frequency): forced • oscillation. When the applied frequency is close to a characteristic • frequency of the system, a phenomenon called resonance occurs. Resonance • Resonance also occurs when a • periodically varying force is applied • to a system with normal modes. • When the frequency of the applied • force is close to one of normal • modes of the system, resonance • occurs.
