    A particle of mass m is attached to a spring (of spring constant k) and has a natural angular frequency \[{{\omega }_{0}}\]-An external force F (t) proportional to \[\cos \omega \,t((\omega \ne {{\omega }_{0}})\]is applied to the oscillator. The time displacement of the oscillator will be proportional to                               [AIEEE 2004]

    A)            \[\frac{m}{\omega _{0}^{2}-{{\omega }^{2}}}\]       

    B)            \[\frac{1}{m(\omega _{0}^{2}-{{\omega }^{2}})}\]

    C)            \[\frac{1}{m(\omega _{1}^{2}+{{\omega }^{2}})}\]

    D)            \[\frac{m}{\omega _{1}^{2}+{{\omega }^{2}}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                       For forced oscillation,                    \[x={{x}_{0}}\sin (\omega t+\varphi )\] and \[F={{F}_{0}}\cos \omega \,t\]            where, \[{{x}_{0}}=\frac{{{F}_{o}}}{m\,(\omega _{o}^{2}-{{\omega }^{2}})}\]\[\propto \frac{1}{m(\omega _{o}^{2}-{{\omega }^{2}})}.\]
