This is why I take Physics in school. Underneath all the complex math stuff. there's more complex math stuff, BUT UNDER THAT, there's practical and cool knowledge like in this video.

3: 05 ummm. nope, stiffness and natural frequency are NOT proportional to one another. The natural frequency is proportional to the square root of the stiffness.

I love TED-Ed but I don't like how the subtitles in Japanese in the video are badly written just as if they had put the text into Google Translate.

How can it not be created by the earthquake itself. when the earthquake was the source of the shockwaves. and the shockwaves is essentially what an earthquake is

Would it be logical to use a tall, slender tree say a palm tree sahken by heavy winds to illustrate & better earthquakes?
