Three disadvantages of vibration include: 1. Noise Pollution – Vibrations can cause noise, disturbing quiet environments. 2. Mechanical Wear – Prolonged vibrations can lead to the wear and tear of mechanical components, reducing the lifespan of devices. 3. Health Issues – Long-term exposure to vibration can lead to health problems such as hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS) or other musculoskeletal disorders.

FAQs & Answers

  1. What causes noise pollution due to vibration? Noise pollution from vibration is caused by the mechanical energy produced that disturbs nearby quiet environments.
  2. How can vibration affect mechanical devices? Prolonged vibration can lead to mechanical wear, reducing the lifespan of devices and potentially causing malfunctions.
  3. What is hand-arm vibration syndrome (HAVS)? HAVS is a health condition caused by regular and frequent exposure to hand-arm vibration, leading to vascular and neurological problems.
