In Simple Harmonic Motion, the frequency of the oscillation (1) is the number of oscillations per second which is expressed as f = 1/T where T is the time period (the time for the oscillator to complete one cycle).

The houses made of mud and thatched roofs are cool in summer and warm in winter as the thatched roof contains large amount of trapped air and also mud is a bad conductor of heat. In summer, the outside heat cannot enter the house and in winter, inside heat cannot flow outside.
The tendency of one object to force another adjoining or interconnected object into vibrational motion is referred to as a forced vibration. In the case of the guitar string mounted to the sound box, the fact that the surface area of the sound box is greater than the surface area of the string means that more surrounding air particles will be forced into vibration. This causes an increase in the amplitude and thus loudness of the sound.
An incandescent light bulb, incandescent lamp or incandescent light globe is an electric light which produces light with a filament wire heated to a high temperature by an electric current passing through it, until it glows. Tungsten, also known as wolfram, is a chemical element.
The rate of transfer of charges through a circuit is called Current. An electric current is the rate of flow of electric charge past a point or region. An electric current is said to exist when there is a net flow of electric charge through a region.
If lift is going up with acceleration, the apparent weight of a body is more than the true weight.
Curved mirror that reflects light from its inner surface, the curve being inward. It may be either circular or parabolic in section. A concave mirror converges parallel light rays inward to the point of principal focus. The image formed by a concave mirror is real (reduced and inverted) if the object is not too close to the mirror. A real image is formed at the point of convergence.
The decibel (dB) is a logarithmic unit that indicates the ratio of a physical quantity (usually power or intensity) relative to a specified or implied reference level. A ratio in decibels is ten times the logarithm to base 10 of the ratio of two power quantities.
An optical fiber (or optical fibre) is a flexible, transparent fiber made of glass (silica) or plastic, slightly thicker than a human hair. It functions as a waveguide, or "light pipe", to transmit light between the two ends of the fiber. The field of applied science and engineering concerned with the design and application of optical fibers is known as fiber optics.
