A particle with restoring force proportional to the displacement and resisting force proportional to velocity is subjected to a force, $\mathrm{F}={\mathrm{F}}_{0 }\sin \mathrm{\omega t}$

If, the amplitude of the particle is maximum for $\mathrm{\omega }={\mathrm{\omega }}_1$ and the energy of the particle is maximum for $\mathrm{\omega }={\mathrm{\omega }}_2$, then

1. ${\mathrm{\omega }}_1={\mathrm{\omega }}_0 \mathrm{and} {\mathrm{\omega }}_2\ne {\mathrm{\omega }}_0$

2. ${\mathrm{\omega }}_1={\mathrm{\omega }}_0 \mathrm{and} {\mathrm{\omega }}_2={\mathrm{\omega }}_0$

3. ${\mathrm{\omega }}_1\ne {\mathrm{\omega }}_0 \mathrm{and} {\mathrm{\omega }}_2={\mathrm{\omega }}_0$

4. ${\mathrm{\omega }}_1\ne {\mathrm{\omega }}_0 \mathrm{and} {\mathrm{\omega }}_2\ne {\mathrm{\omega }}_0$
