For forced oscillations, a particle oscillates in a simple harmonic fashion with a frequency equal to:

1. the frequency of driving force.

2. the mean of frequency of driving force and natural frequency of the body.

3. the difference of frequency of driving force and natural frequency of the body.

4. the natural frequency of the body.

The figure given below shows the graphs for amplitudes of forced oscillations in resonance conditions for different damping conditions. 

           

One of the conclusions that can be drawn from the graph above is:

1. As damping increases, amplitude increases

2. As damping increases, the amplitude decreases

3. As damping increases, the amplitude does not change

4. As damping increases, the amplitude may increase or decrease
