प्रश्न
Explain why does the rear mirror of a motorbike start Vibrating Violently, at some particular speed of motorbike?

उत्तर
When the frequency of the engine of motorbike corresponds with the natural frequency of the rear view mirror, die resonance takes place. Thus, the rearview mirror vibrates with a larger amplitude violently.
