This resonance simulator allows learners to investigate the behaviour of oscillating systems when driven by external forces. Students can adjust driving frequency, amplitude, and damping parameters to observe how resonance occurs, how energy transfers in oscillatory systems, and how damping affects system response across different frequencies.
Learning objectives: Understand the relationship between driving frequency and system response | Observe how resonance peaks occur and predict resonant frequency conditions | Analyse the effects of damping on amplitude and energy dissipation in oscillations
