What is the difference between oscillation and vibration ?

So due to your unsure thank you from the answer before, here’s another explanation that I hope will help :)

Oscillation is the movement of a body from its resting place to the maximum distance it can cover on one side to the maximum distance on the other side and back to its resting place.

Vibration is any type of motion of an object around some equilibrium position. Not necessarily periodic, and not necessarily forming anything that looks like "waves".

If you’re still confused, that’s ok, just leave me a comment, good luck!

Oscillation is a definite distance covered by the movement about it's equilibrium position, vibration is reffered to the physical change brought about due to movement of the body. Oscillation can be seen in the swinging of a pendulum clock and vibration in the plucking of guitar string

What kind of circuit is the one shown below?
vovikov84 [41]

That's a <em>parallel</em> circuit. <em>(B)</em>

When current from Point-A reaches the 3-way intersection just to the right of Point-B, it has to make a choice:  Either turn left, go through B, and light the lower bulb, or go straight and light the upper bulb.

A circuit that has any "decision" points in it is a parallel circuit.  What happens in the real world is:  The current splits up.  Some of the current that reaches the intersection turns left toward Point-B, and the rest of it goes straight up.

A series circuit is one in which there's only one possible path all the way around.  There are no intersections of more than 2 roads, and no electron ever has to decide which way to flow.

An open circuit is one in which there's a break somewhere along the line and electrons can't jump across it.  It's like a railroad where a big piece is cut out of the track somewhere.  So no trains can travel on that route, and there's no current flowing anywhere in the circuit.

I'm not so sure about a "combination" circuit.  I guess you could give that name to a complicated circuit that has some series parts and some parallel-parts.  Personally, I'd call that a "series-parallel" circuit.  But it really doesn't matter right now.  Whatever the word means, the circuit in the picture is definitely not a "combination" circuit.

Explanation:

a block of iron in denser then the block of wood

as the atoms in iron are more closely bounded as compared to that in the wood

How do you know whether to put a nine or a 10 in front of the number on the weather station
3241004551 [841]
If the air pressure on the station model is 500 or more, place a 9 in front of this number. If the pressure number on the station is less than 500 add a 10 in front of this number. 

Good luck :)
