AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on understanding the timing of a buzzer's vibrations in relation to its driving force on a jacket of length L. It highlights the concept of resonance, where the buzzer's vibrations can reinforce the motion of the jacket. Due to energy losses in the swinging cloth, there is a phase lag, meaning the cloth's response is slightly delayed compared to the buzzer's vibrations. This phase lag results in a continuous reinforcement of the driving force. The interaction between the buzzer and the jacket exemplifies the principles of resonance in physical systems.

How do we tell when the buzzer vibrates during the cycle to provide the driving force?

Many thanks!

It's an example of resonance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance.
Because there are losses in the swinging cloth, it will always be a bit behind the source of vibration (phase lag). As a result, the impetus from the source is reinforcing.

Thread 'Collision of a bullet on a rod-string system: query'

In this question, I have a question. I am NOT trying to solve it, but it is just a conceptual question. Consider the point on the rod, which connects the string and the rod. My question: just before and after the collision, is ANGULAR momentum CONSERVED about this point? Lets call the point which connects the string and rod as P. Why am I asking this? : it is clear from the scenario that the point of concern, which connects the string and the rod, moves in a circular path due to the string...
