Question

The amplitude of velocity of a particle acted on by a force F=cos ω t along the x direction, is given by x=1aω2-bω+c where a,b,c, are constants and b2<4 ac. . For what value of ω does the resonance occur?

Difficult
Solution

X=1aω2bω+c​  At resonance X becomes maximum and aω2bω+c becomes minimum. ​ Differentiate above term and equating it to zero. ​2aωb=0ω=b2a
