Question

Playing a certain musical note on a trumpet

causes the spring on the bottom of a nearby

snare drum to vibrate. This phenomenon is an

example of

(1) resonance (3) reflection

(2) refraction (4) diffraction

Answer 1

(1) Resonance

Step-by-step explanation:

Resonance is the process whereby a system is set into vibration due to the vibration of a nearby system with larger amplitude. The frequency at which this vibration takes place is called the resonant frequency.

It is a phenomenon of amplification that occurs when the frequency of a periodically applied force is in harmonic proportion to the natural frequency of the system on which it acts.
