Definition of vibration
Thanks for using this online dictionary, we have been helping millions of people improve their use of the english language with its free online services. English definition of vibration is as below...
Vibration
(n.) A
limited
reciprocating
motion
of a
particle
of an
elastic
body or
medium
in
alternately
opposite
directions
from its
position
of
equilibrium,
when that
equilibrium
has been
disturbed,
as when a
stretched
cord or other body
produces
musical
notes,
or
particles
of air
transmit
sounds
to the ear. The path of the
particle
may be in a
straight
line, in a
circular
arc, or in any curve
whatever..

Escapement
::
Escapement
(n.) The
contrivance
in a
timepiece
which
connects
the train of wheel work with the
pendulum
or
balance,
giving
to the

-- so
called
because
it
allows
a tooth to
escape
from a
pallet
at each
vibration..

(n.) A
small,
flat, wind
instrument
of
music,

(n.) A
prolongation
or
increase
of any
sound,
either
by
reflection,
as in a
cavern
or
apartment
the walls of which are not
distant
enough
to
return
a

echo, or by the
production
of
vibrations
in other
bodies,
as a
sounding-board,

of
musical
instruments..
Pitch
::
Pitch (n.) The
relative
acuteness
or
gravity
of a tone,
determined
by the
number
of
vibrations
which
produce
it; the place of any tone upon a scale of high and low..
Sonometer
::
Sonometer
(n.) An
instrument
for
exhibiting
the
transverse
vibrations
of
cords,
and
ascertaining
the
relations
between
musical
notes.
It
consists
of a cord
stretched
by
weight
along a box, and
divided
into
different
lengths
at
pleasure
by a
bridge,
the place of which is
determined
by a scale on the face of the box..
Sound
::
Sound (n.) The
occasion
of
sound;
the
impulse
or
vibration
which would
occasion
sound to a
percipient
if
present
with
unimpaired;
hence,
the
theory
of
vibrations
in
elastic
media such cause
sound;
as, a
treatise
on
sound..
Agraffe
::
Agraffe
(n.) A hook,
eyelet,
or other
device
by which a piano wire is so held as to limit the
vibration..
Larynx
::
Larynx
(n.) The
expanded
upper end of the
windpipe
or
trachea,
connected
with the hyoid bone or
cartilage.
It
contains
the vocal
cords,
which
produce
the voice by their
vibrations,
when they are
stretched
and a
current
of air
passes
between
them. The
larynx
is
connected
with the
pharynx
by an
opening,
the
glottis,
which,
in
mammals,
is
protected
by a
lidlike
epiglottis..
Phonograph
::
Phonograph
(n.) An
instrument
for the
mechanical
registration
and
reproduction
of
audible
sounds,
as
articulate
speech,
etc. It
consists
of a
rotating
cylinder
or disk
covered
with some
material
easily
indented,
as
tinfoil,
wax,
paraffin,
etc., above which is a thin plate
carrying
a
stylus.
As the plate
vibrates
under the
influence
of a
sound,
the
stylus
makes
minute
indentations
or
undulations
in the soft
material,
and
these,
when the
cylinder
or disk is again
turned,
set the plate in
vibration
Zoospore
::
Zoospore
(n.) A spore
provided
with one or more
slender
cilia,
by the
vibration
of which it swims in the
water.
Zoospores
are
produced
by many
green,
and by some
olive-brown,
algae.
In
certain
species
they are
divided
into the
larger
macrozoospores
and the
smaller
microzoospores.
Called
also
sporozoid,
and
swarmspore..

Undulation
(n.) The act of
undulating;
a

molecules
in all
phases
of a
vibration,
with no phase
repeated;
a wave of
vibration;
an

Voiced
::
Voiced
(a.)
Uttered
with
voice;
pronounced
with
vibrations
of the vocal
cords;
sonant;
-- said of a sound
uttered
with the

narrowed.
Phonoscope
::
Phonoscope
(n.) An
instrument
for
producing

Stylus
::
Stylus
(n.) That
needle-shaped
part at the tip of the
playing
arm of
phonograph
which sits in the
groove
of a
phonograph
record
while it is
turning,
to
detect
the
undulations
in the
phonograph
groove
and
convert
them into
vibrations
which are
transmitted
to a
system
(since
1920
electronic)
which
converts
the
signal
into
sound;
also
called
needle.
The
stylus
is
frequently
composed

diamond..
Damper
::
Damper
(n.) That which damps or
checks;
as: (a) A valve or

of
mechanism,
to check some
action
at a
particular
time..
Nonconductor
::
Nonconductor
(n.) A
substance
which does not

that is,
convey
or
transmit,
heat,
electricity,
sound,
vibration,
or the like, or which
transmits
them with
difficulty;
an
insulator;
as, wool is a
nonconductor
of heat; glass and dry wood are
nonconductors
of
electricity..
Phase
::
Phase (n.) Any one point or
portion
in a
recurring
series
of
changes,
as in the
changes
of
motion
of one of the
particles
constituting
a wave or
vibration;
one
portion
of a
series
of such
changes,
in
distinction
from a
contrasted
portion,
as the
portion
on one side of a

contrast
with that on the
