G3-11: SHIVE WAVE MACHINE - RESONANCE ABSORPTION
- ID Code: G3-11
- Purpose: Demonstrate resonance absorption of wave energy by a mass-on-spring system.
- Description: Sending a wave along the machine drives the spring-mass attached to one of the crossarms. The greatest effect will be at the resonant frequency for the mass on the spring. A well chosen driving frequency will result in almost complete absorption of the wave.
