Consider a forced single degree-of-freedom system governed by

mẍ(t) + 2ζωẋ(t) + ω2x(t) = ω2 cos(ωt),

where ζ and ω are the damping ratio and undamped natural frequency of the system, respectively, while ωf is the forcing frequency. The amplitude of the forced steady state response of this system is given by [ (1 - r2)2 + (2ζr)2 ]-1/2, where r = ωf/ω. The peak amplitude of this response occurs at a frequency ωf = ω√(1 - 2ζ2). If ωd denotes the damped natural frequency of this system, which one of the following options is true?

A
ωd < ω < ωn
B
ωd = ω < ωn
C
ωd < ω = ωn
D
ωd < ω < ωn

Correct : c
