About this Simulation

This resonance simulator models the behaviour of oscillating systems driven at various frequencies. Learners can adjust driving frequency, damping, and system properties to observe how resonance occurs when the driving frequency matches the natural frequency, leading to maximum amplitude and energy transfer.

Learning objectives: Understand the relationship between driving frequency and oscillation amplitude | Identify conditions for resonance and predict system response | Explore how damping affects resonance sharpness and peak amplitude
