What are harmonics?

Answer:

Answer

Harmonics are multiples (thirds, fifths, etc) or divisions of frequencies. In radio, harmonics can be used carry additional signals on a single base frequency. It is the harmonics of an audio frequency that make a musical instrument unique. By damping a string at a half or third/fifth of its length a harmonic is easily heard. The truth is they were always there, the damping of the incident wave just brings them to the fore.
