Talk:Resonance

Linear systems section is too too long.

Per WP:NOTTEXTBOOK, the section on linear systems should be cut down, I suggest to one example. Johnjbarton (talk) 22:38, 27 May 2024 (UTC)

don't agree, it seems useful as it is to me Omblauman (talk) 11:09, 30 August 2025 (UTC)

Minor objection to lead

I really like the current version of the lead reverted to by Binksternet. It is easily understood by general readers

Resonance is a phenomenon that occurs when an object or system is subjected to an external force or vibration that matches its resonant frequency (or resonance frequency), defined as the frequency that generates the maximum amplitude response in the system. When this happens, the object or system absorbs energy from the external force and starts vibrating with a larger amplitude.

The only objection I have is that many systems have multiple resonant frequencies. Could we make the lead plural?

Resonance is a phenomenon that occurs when an object or system is subjected to an external force or vibration whose frequency matches a resonant frequency (or resonance frequency) of the system, defined as a frequency that generates a maximum amplitude response in the system.

Plural makes sense. Binksternet (talk) 22:26, 21 May 2025 (UTC)

sources in examples

I added sources in the examples section, maybe it's good enough that somebody should move flag to Linear section? WhaleFarm (talk) 19:53, 29 January 2026 (UTC)
