G2-11: RESONANT SAW BLADES - HAND DRIVEN
- ID Code: G2-11
- Purpose: Show that a mechanical oscillator responds with a maximum amplitude to its own resonant frequency.
- Description:
Three saw blades of different lengths have been rigidly attached to a manual shaker. Shaking the assembly, one can find the resonant frequency of each saw blade.
For a similar power-driven demonstration, see G3-45.
