Question

Assertion : In forced oscillations, the steady state motion of the particle is simple harmonic
Reason : The frequency of particle after the free oscillations die out, is the natural frequency of the particle

• A. If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion
• B. If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion
• C. If assertion is true but reason is false
• D. If both assertion and reason are false

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

In forced oscillations, the frequency of particle after free oscillations die out, is the frequency of the driving force, not the natural frequency of the particle
