Forced oscillation
Question

The amplitude of a forced oscillator as a function of angular frequency of the driving force as shown in figure. The amplitude is greatest if

\large \omega =  natural angular frequency of body

\large {\omega _d}\, = angular frequency of driving force

Moderate
Solution

Amplitude is maximum at resonance and  \large {\omega _d}\, = \,\omega

For forced oscillation with damper, amplitude is given by

Clearly 'A' becomes maximum at \large \omega \, = \,{\omega _d}
