Goals
- Conservations of energy
- Resonance/ Natural Frequencies
- (frequencies)
- (periods/beat frequencies)
Other Examples
- Wilbur force pendulum- physics
- sound waves= oscillation (wine glasses etc.)
- bridges- Tacoma Narrows Bridge (engineering)
- rotational-vibrational line (Chem/Astro)
- earthquakes (seismology, earth science)
- radio (electrical engineering)
- (oscillations- light, sound, physical)
- (micro-> macro) (simple-> complex) (modeling important to science
- amplifiers (electrical engineering)
- MRI (biomed, physics, cog sci)
- music
