Another cool example of this effect is with helicopter blades

if the sampling frequency is just the same as the frequency of wagon, will it be seen as a still wagon wheel?

That's a good question! Let's try to work this out. At any particular pixel (x,y) in this video sequence, we can approximately model the temporal function f(t) as a square wave that has some frequency w. What might happen when the sampling frequency matches the frequency of the square wave f(t)? What about sampling the same function at a frequency equal to w/k, for any integer k? Hint: This is related to that helicopter video.
The helicopter is really neat btw. Here's another fun video showing off aliasing effects for water droplets under stroboscopic illumination!
