The discussion centers on whether the resonant frequency of a solid object, like a rock, can be transmitted to alter its natural frequency. It is clarified that natural resonant frequency is an inherent property of an object and cannot be changed by external frequencies. Examples from electronic circuits, such as quartz crystals, illustrate that while they have specific resonant frequencies, these cannot be altered by external signals. The conversation also touches on musical instruments, emphasizing that if their resonances could be changed by other sounds, music would not function as it does. Overall, the consensus is that natural frequencies are fixed characteristics of objects.
