Options:
  • A
    $\omega_1=\omega_2$
  • B
    $\omega_1>\omega_2$
  • C
    $\omega_1 < \omega_2$ when damping is small and $\omega_1>\omega_2$ when damping is large
  • D
    $\omega_1 < \omega_2$

The correct answer is:
$\omega_1=\omega_2$
Both amplitude and energy get maximised when the frequency is equal to the natural frequency. This is the condition of resonance.
$$
\omega_1=\omega_2
$$
