Re: [Phys-L] Mesmerizing



Not only 'appears to be' but it's specified with the video clip that a compliant mount encourages synchronization. Actually, it is found that very small amounts of energy applied cyclically, will eventually synchronize devices which share a resonant frequency. Applies to electronic devices too, despite Z'ev's misgivings.

Brian Whatcott Altus OK
