A particle oscillating under a force `vecF=-kvecx-bvecv` is a (k and b are constants)

A

simple harmonic oscillator

B

linear oscillator

C

damped oscillator

D

forced oscillator

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
A particle oscillating under a force `vecF=-kvecx-bvecv` is a damped oscillator. The first term - `kvecx` represent the restoring force and second term - `bvecv` represents the damping force.
