What does Resonance Frequency mean?

AI Thread Summary
Resonance width refers to the range of frequencies over which a system, such as an RLC circuit, can effectively resonate. It is a critical concept in understanding how circuits behave at resonance, where the impedance is minimized and the circuit behaves like a resistor. The resonance width can be calculated using specific equations related to the circuit's components, including resistance, inductance, and capacitance. This concept is essential for analyzing the performance of RLC circuits in various applications. Understanding resonance width helps in optimizing circuit design and functionality.

Sorry if this is in the wrong subsection, i figured this would be the most appropriate section. *** title has a mistake. i meant resonance WIDTH not its freq.***

anyway, i came across resonance WIDTH (sorry not freq.) in one of my HW problems. I honestly can't recall ever going over this in class and when i googled it i didnt find anything particularly helpful. i just would like to know what it means and what equations i can use to find it. It is about RLC circuits if that is important.

thanks for the help in advance :)

Well resonance occurs when essentially the circuit essentially just becomes a resistor.
 

Thread 'Errors and significant figures'

I multiplied the values first without the error limit. Got 19.38. rounded it off to 2 significant figures since the given data has 2 significant figures. So = 19. For error I used the above formula. It comes out about 1.48. Now my question is. Should I write the answer as 19±1.5 (rounding 1.48 to 2 significant figures) OR should I write it as 19±1. So in short, should the error have same number of significant figures as the mean value or should it have the same number of decimal places as...

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Thread 'A cylinder connected to a hanging mass'

Let's declare that for the cylinder, mass = M = 10 kg Radius = R = 4 m For the wall and the floor, Friction coeff = ##\mu## = 0.5 For the hanging mass, mass = m = 11 kg First, we divide the force according to their respective plane (x and y thing, correct me if I'm wrong) and according to which, cylinder or the hanging mass, they're working on. Force on the hanging mass $$mg - T = ma$$ Force(Cylinder) on y $$N_f + f_w - Mg = 0$$ Force(Cylinder) on x $$T + f_f - N_w = Ma$$ There's also...
