Determine the amplitude of a driven oscillator if the frequencyof the driver matches the natural frequency of the oscillatoritself. Assume a friction-free system.
A damped oscillating system is driven by a variable force. Whichof the following, when increased, will decrease the steady-stateamplitude?
- The magnitude of the maximum driving force
- The mass of the oscillator
- The damping coefficient
- A combination of two. If so, which ones?
