Oscillations Differential Equations

A body continues to oscillate due to

• inertia.

• elasticity.

• either elasticity or inertia.

• both elasticity and inertia.

Which one is correct, in case of oscillation?

• Displacement and restoring force are in the same direction.

• Displacement is always away from mean position where as restoring force is always towards the mean position.

• Displacement is always towards the mean position where as restoring force is always away from the mean position.

• The direction of displacement and restoring force is random.

Which force (s) is (are) present in case of damped oscillation?

• Restoring force

• Damping force

• Both restoring force and damping force.

• Restoring force, damping force and external periodic force.

The general solution of undamped oscillation is ( where the symbols have their usual meaning)

• 
• 
• 
• All the above
