  2. Electrical resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_resonance

    A tesla coil is a high-Q resonant circuit. Electrical resonance occurs in an electric circuit at a particular resonant frequency when the impedances or admittances of circuit elements cancel each other. In some circuits, this happens when the impedance between the input and output of the circuit is almost zero and the transfer function is close ...

  3. Ferroresonance in electricity networks - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferroresonance_in...

    Ferroresonance or nonlinear resonance is a rare [1] type of resonance in electric circuits which occurs when a circuit containing a nonlinear inductance is fed from a source that has series capacitance, and the circuit is subjected to a disturbance such as opening of a switch. [2]

  4. RLC circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RLC_circuit

    The change from a series arrangement to a parallel arrangement results in the circuit having a peak in impedance at resonance rather than a minimum, so the circuit is an anti-resonator. The graph opposite shows that there is a minimum in the frequency response of the current at the resonance frequency ω 0 = 1 / L C {\displaystyle ~\omega _{0 ...

  5. Clar's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clar's_rule

    Clar's rule states that for a benzenoid polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (i.e. one with only hexagonal rings), the resonance structure with the largest number of disjoint aromatic π-sextets is the most important to characterize its chemical and physical properties. Such a resonance structure is called a Clar structure. In other words, a ...

  6. Schumann resonances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schumann_resonances

    The global electromagnetic resonance phenomenon is named after physicist Winfried Otto Schumann who predicted it mathematically in 1952. Schumann resonances are the principal background in the part of the electromagnetic spectrum [2] from 3 Hz through 60 Hz [3] and appear as distinct peaks at extremely low frequencies around 7.83 Hz (fundamental), 14.3, 20.8, 27.3, and 33.8 Hz.

  7. Natural frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_frequency

    Natural frequency, measured in terms of eigenfrequency, is the rate at which an oscillatory system tends to oscillate in the absence of disturbance. A foundational example pertains to simple harmonic oscillators, such as an idealized spring with no energy loss wherein the system exhibits constant-amplitude oscillations with a constant frequency.

  8. Resonance (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonance_(chemistry)

    Contributing structures of the carbonate ion. In chemistry, resonance, also called mesomerism, is a way of describing bonding in certain molecules or polyatomic ions by the combination of several contributing structures (or forms, [1] also variously known as resonance structures or canonical structures) into a resonance hybrid (or hybrid structure) in valence bond theory.

  9. Resonator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resonator

    A common form is the resonant stub, a length of transmission line terminated in either a short circuit or open circuit, connected in series or parallel with a main transmission line. Planar transmission-line resonators are commonly employed for coplanar, stripline, and microstrip transmission lines. Such planar transmission-line resonators can ...
