Model railroad type example Sn3.5 is as follows, S (scale) being the prefix to n (narrow gauge) followed by 3.5 (prototype track gauge in feet), 3 and 1/2 feet, or 42 inches, which in Sn3.5 equates to actual modeling track width of .649 - .672 thousandths, 16.5 - 17.1 mm.
Definition of harmonic. 1  1a : overtone; especially : one whose vibration frequency is an integral multiple of that of the fundamentalb : a flutelike tone produced on a stringed instrument by touching a vibrating string at a nodal point.
Furthermore, an individual resonance is the condition when a natural frequency of a structure or material and the frequency at which it is being excited are equal or very nearly equal. This results in the structure or material vibrating strongly and is the classical resonance state.
