Question

What is the main difference between forced oscillations and resonance?

✓

Answer

In forced oscillations, a body oscillates with the help of external periodic force with a frequency different from natural frequency of body but in resonance a body oscillates with its own natural frequency with the help of an external periodic force whose frequency is equal to natural frequency of body.
