Apply a periodic force

• drive

• natural frequency

• resonance

• amplitude

Any object that undergoes simple harmonic motion is a/an

• pendulum

• resonator

• oscillator

Resonance results in a/an increased

• frequency

• period

• amplitude

• restoring force

To get an oscillator into resonance, the driving force must

(select all that apply)

• have a large amplitude

• be applied at the natural frequency of the oscillator

• have a very high frequency
