    Mathquest: Differential Equations

    Uploaded by

    Tushar Gupta
    This document contains 9 multiple choice questions about differential equations that model forced oscillations and exhibit either resonance or beats. Resonance occurs when the natural frequency of oscillation of the system matches the driving frequency of the external force. Beats occur when there is a slight mismatch between the natural and driving frequencies, resulting in a periodic variation in amplitude. The questions test the reader's ability to identify which differential equations will demonstrate resonance or beats based on the coefficients and forcing terms.
