उत्तर
This phenomenon is called ‘resonance’. In this phenomenon when a body begins with the natural frequency of the others vibrating body B, then A begins to vibrate violently with the maximum amplitude.
The frame of a motorcycle along with the rearview mirror is found to vibrate violently when it is driven to a particular speed, this happens when the frame has the natural frequency of vibration equal to that of the piston when the engine is driven at that particular, speed.
