    by an external force. Resulting in the exchange of kinetic energy and potential energy between the mass and spring of the system. An example of interference in the mechanical vibration, which are wind (done with the plane, building bridges), ocean waves (done with the ship in the sea), and ground motion because of the earthquake (action and building structures). The general two kinds of vibration are free…

    When a lens produces an image, the size of it corresponds to the focal length of the lens. The smaller the focal length, the smaller the image and the longer the focal length the bigger the image. How bright an image may be solely depends on the amount of light collected by the objective lens. How much light can be collected corresponds to the area of the objective lens. So the bigger the objective lens, the more light can be collected. If you want to increase the light gathering power by 4, you…
