A car with a loud bass speaker drives by a house. The windows of the house vibrate significantly. What term best describes why the windows vibrate?

Answer: Resonance

Explanation:

Resonance is a vibration set up in a body (house windows) due to a transfer of energy from another body (loud bass speaker) which is vibrating with a same or nearly equal frequency as that of the first.

Thus, resonance explains that once the natural frequency of the windows happens to be the same as the frequency of the speaker, vibrations occurs.
