A simple harmonic oscillator of angular frequency \(2\,rad\,s^{-1}\) is acted upon by an external force \(F = sin\,t\,N .\) If the oscillator is at rest in its equilibrium position at \(t = 0,\) its position at later times is proportional to

  1. A \(\sin \,t\, + \,\frac{1}{2}\,\cos \,2t\)
  2. B \(\cos \,t\, - \,\frac{1}{2}\,\sin \,2t\)
  3. C \(\sin \,t\, - \,\frac{1}{2}\,\sin \,2t\)
  4. D \(\sin \,t\, + \,\frac{1}{2}\,\sin \,2t\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\sin \,t\, - \,\frac{1}{2}\,\sin \,2t\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As we know, \(F=m a \Rightarrow a \propto F\) or, \(a \propto \sin t\) \(\Rightarrow \frac{d v}{d t} \propto \sin t\) \(\Rightarrow \int_{0}^{0} d V \propto \int_{0}^{t} \sin t d t\) \(V \propto-\cos t+1\) \(\int_{0}^{x} d x=\int_{0}^{t}(-\cos t+1) d t\)…
