SHMHard
Question
A particle of mass m is attached to a spring (of spring constant k) and has a natural angular frequency ω0. An external force F(t) proportional to cosωt (ω ≠ ω0) is applied to the oscillator. The time displacement of the oscillator will be proportional to
Options
A.

B.

C.

D.

Solution
For forced oscillations, the displacement is given by
x = A sin (ωt + φ) with A =
x = A sin (ωt + φ) with A =
