$Assertion :$ Resonance is a special case of forced vibration in which the natural frequency of vibration of the body is the same as the impressed frequency of external periodic force and the amplitude of forced vibration is maximum.
$Reason :$ The amplitude of forced vibrations of a body increases with an increase in the frequency of the externally impressed periodic force.

  • B
    If both Assertion and Reason are correct but Reason is not a correct explanation of the Assertion.
  • C
    If the Assertion is correct but Reason is incorrect.
  • D
    If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

    A block of mass $2\,kg$ is attached with two identical springs of spring constant $20\,N / m$ each. The block is placed on a frictionless surface and the ends of the springs are attached to rigid supports (see figure). When the mass is displaced from its equilibrium position, it executes a simple harmonic motion. The time period of oscillation is $\frac{\pi}{\sqrt{x}}$ in SI unit. The value of $x$ is $..........$
