We recently had a thread on https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=440768". What about a string? After it is randomly plucked, what model explains why the many very high order modes decay so much quicker than the fundamental resonance mode does?
A similar example (if this might be any easier to model) is how an air cavity such as a seashell, excited by the surrounding noise, preferentially absorbs energy from components of that noise other than near the cavity's several lowest natural frequencies?
