5.5.152 - Resonance amplitude and damping

Understand how the amplitude of a forced oscillation changes at and around the natural frequency of a system and know, qualitatively, how damping affects resonance.

Use - resonance amplitude and damping to connect the rule to the data and decision in the question.

This matters because - resonance amplitude and damping determines what can be inferred or chosen; begin with the stated conditions and keep the conclusion tied to the evidence.

Example: apply - resonance amplitude and damping to one small, clearly defined case, show the key step or comparison, and explain the result in words.

Boundary: - Resonance amplitude and damping is not a universal recommendation. Check the syllabus scope, assumptions, units and the limits of the evidence before generalising.
