Damped, Forced Oscillations & Superposition

A particle is performing simple harmonic motion and if the oscillations are damped oscillations then the angular frequency is given by

Show answer and solution

Answer: (c)

  1. Damped motion x=Ae−bt/2mcos⁡(ω′t+ϕ)x = Ae^{-bt/2m}\cos(\omega' t + \phi) with ω′2=ω02−(b2m)2\omega'^2 = \omega_0^2 - \left(\frac{b}{2m}\right)^2.
  2. ω′=km−(b2m)2\omega' = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} - \left(\frac{b}{2m}\right)^2}, answer (c).
