प्रश्न
The rearview mirror of a motorbike starts vibrating violently at some particular speed of the motorbike. What is the name of the phenomenon taking place? Why does the happen?
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.
