Abstract

In this paper, we take a vibration-damping devices in the well-known physical experimental instrument--scanning tunneling microscope as the study base, and with the help of GeoGebra software, we explain in detail the principle of damping the vibration of the damper in the magnetic field to realize the vibration-damping function of the whole device and establish a clear physical picture and a correct and comprehensive knowledge. This question also shows the process of clarifying the meaning of the problem with the help of software tools.
