Answer: The correct options are:
A note being played on a saxophone
An opera singer breaking glass with her voice a person pushing
A swing at the rate it naturally oscillates back and forth
Explanation:
Resonance is a phenomenon which occurs when the applied frequency on the object is equal to its natural frequency.
When resonance occurs the amplitude of the vibrating object becomes large.
In the given options, the examples of the resonance are as follows:
"an opera singer breaking a glass with her voice a person pushing": Here, the resonance will occur due to which the glass will break. The applied frequency of the voice of a person on the glass matches with the natural frequency of the glass.
"a note being played on a saxophone": Here, the resonance will occur. The sound energy is produced by saxophone. The air is blown through mouthpiece in it. It causes reed to vibrate rapidly against mouthpiece. Then, air moves through it. Then, the sound is amplified until it escapes through open tone holes.
"swing at the rate it naturally oscillates back and forth": when the applied frequency on the swing matches with the natural frequency of swing. The amplitude of the swing will increase. Here, the resonance will occur.
