The Q factor or quality factor is a measure of the "quality" of a resonant system.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Resonant systems respond to frequencies close to the natural frequency much more strongly than they respond to other frequencies. The Q factor indicates the amount of resistance to resonance in a system. Systems with a high Q factor resonate with a greater amplitude (at the resonant frequency) than systems with a low Q factor. Damping decreases the Q factor.

Frequencies: REDIRECT frequency...

Damping: Damping is any effect, either deliberately engendered or inherent to a system, that tends to reduce the amplitude of oscillations....
