Consider the following the statements 1. The oscillation of a particle with fundamental frequency under the influence of restoring force is defined as forced oscillations 2. The oscillation of a body whose amplitude goes on decreasing with time is defined as damped oscillation. 3. The oscillation in which a body oscillates under the influence of an external periodic force is known as forced oscillation. Which of the following statements is/are correct? Correct Answer Both 2 and 3

CONCEPT:

  • Damped oscillation: The oscillation of a body whose amplitude goes on decreasing with time are defined as a damped oscillation.
  • Forced oscillation: The oscillation in which a body oscillates under the influence of an external periodic force is known as forced oscillation.
  • The external agent which exerts the periodic force is called the driver and the oscillating system under consideration is called the driver body.

EXPLANATION:

  • The oscillation of a particle with fundamental frequency under the influence of restoring force is defined as free oscillations. Therefore statement 1 is incorrect.
  • The oscillation of a body whose amplitude goes on decreasing with time is defined as a damped oscillation. Therefore statement 2 is correct.
  • The oscillation in which a body oscillates under the influence of an external periodic force is known as forced oscillation. Therefore statement 3 is incorrect.
