What do you mean by resonance? When does resonance occur?

उत्तर
Resonance is a special case of forced vibration, when a body vibrates under the influence of an external periodic force, with a very large amplitude. Resonance occurs when the frequency of external force is either equal to or is integer multiple of the natural frequency of the vibrating body.

Differentiate between the following:
Light and sound waves.
When acoustic resonance takes place, a loud sound is heard. Why does this happen? Explain.
A vibrating tuning fork is placed over the mouth of a burette filled with water. The tap is opened and the water level gradually falls. It is observed that the sound becomes the loudest for a particular length of the air column. What is the name of the phenomenon taking place when this happens? Why does the sound become the loudest?
