Abstract
Chapter 2 introduced the concept of simple harmonic motion. This concept allowed us to define the terms used to discuss vibrating systems—terms like amplitude and frequency. Chapter 3 extends this discussion to additional properties of real vibrating systems. It ends with the topics of spectrum and resonance, essential concepts in any form of physics, especially acoustics.
