#228: Resonance

Resonance

[[A person is sitting at a desk, which is vibrating.]]

«clatter clatter»

[[He leans back and turns to face someone sitting at another desk behind him.]]

Person 1: Excuse me–you’re jiggling your leg up and down. It’s traveling through the floor and making my desk resonate.

Person 2: Oh, I didn’t even realize! I’ll stop.

[[The first person passes a sheet of paper to the second person.]]

Person 1: Actually, can you just shift the frequency up by 15%? I think you can get resonance with Steve’s desk instead.

Person 2: Uh huh . . .

Person 1: Here are the calculations. Let’s coordinate and try to spill his drink.
