Question 6 (5 points) Which of the following scenarios describes a condition in which resonance can
occur?
A) Tivo tuning forks are struck simultaneously, one with a frequency of 659Hz
and one with a frequency of 639 Hz, causing beats.
B Two tuning forks that vibrate at the same frequency are near each other. One
tuning fork is struck with a mallet so that it vibrates.
C) A tuning fork is over a column of air that is 9/2 the wavelength of the wave
produced by the tuning fork.
An isolated tuning fork is struck with a mallet, causing it to vibrate strongly at
659 Hz.

B. Two tuning forks that vibrate at the same frequency are near each other. One tuning fork is struck with a mallet so that it vibrates.

Explanation:

A wave can be defined as a disturbance in a medium that progressively transports energy from a source location to another location without the transportation of matter.

In Science, there are two (2) types of wave and these include;

I. Electromagnetic waves: it doesn't require a medium for its propagation and as such can travel through an empty space or vacuum. An example of an electromagnetic wave is light.

II. Mechanical waves: it requires a medium for its propagation and as such can't travel through an empty space or vacuum. An example of a mechanical wave is sound.

An amplitude can be defined as a waveform that's measured from the center line (its origin or equilibrium position) to the bottom of a trough or top of a crest.

Resonance can be defined as a phenomenon in which an object is forced to vibrate as a result of the vibration of a second object at the same natural frequency of the first object. Thus, it's an increase in the amplitude of oscillation that occurs when the frequency of a periodically applied force is equal to the natural frequency of the system on which it's acting.

Hence, the scenario that best describe a condition in which resonance can occur is two tuning forks that vibrate at the same frequency are near each other. One tuning fork is struck with a mallet so that it vibrates.
