Vibration and Frequency
Vibration is the back-and-forth or oscillating movement of an object around a central point. Frequency refers to how many of these vibrations happen in one second. For example, a guitar string vibrating quickly produces a high-pitched sound, while a slow vibration makes a lower pitch. In essence, vibration is the motion, and frequency measures how often this motion occurs over time. Both are fundamental in sound, machinery, and various technologies, helping us understand how objects produce sounds, transfer energy, or operate smoothly.
