Best Answer

The object tends to start oscillating. The longer the oscillations occur, the stronger they become. Eventually, the object might be destroyed. This is why soldiers are instructed to "break step" when marching over a bridge. Check the internet for "Galloping Gertie."

Do most objects have a natural frequency of vibration?

Absolutely not! Glass, for example (every wine glass has a different natural frequency), can be broken by a frequency that matches its own but nearby objects aren't affected by the same frequency.

What phenomenon that occurs when two objects naturally vibrate at the same frequency the sound produced by one object causes the other to vibrate?

This process that determines an object's response to vibrations by varying the frequencies of the electromagnetic (em radiation) energy that it simultaneously reflects and absorbs, in response to its natural harmonies , is called Resonance. Input vibrations, by being either absorbed and cancelled, or reflected and boosting, affect energy response at the substance's natural frequencies, and may be either squelched or amplified depending upon the incident vibrations.


How do things produce sound?

by vibrating at a frequency between 20-20 000 hertz. When objects vibrate they cause vibrations in air particles. The vibrations travel until the energy is dissipated or hits another object.
