We are concerned with the forced oscillation of the oscillator at ω, and we will ignore the resonant
contribution at ω0 . Assuming a solution of the form x(t) = c3 cos(ωt) + c4 sin(ωt), we plug into
the equation of motion to find:
F0
γωc4 − ω 2 c3 + ω02 c3 cos(ωt) + ω02 c4 − ω 2 c4 − γωc3 sin(ωt) =
cos(ωt) (7)
m

which gives:
F0 (ω02 − ω 2 ) F0 γω
c3 = c4 = (8)
m[(γω)2 + (ω02 − ω 2 )2 ] m[(γω)2 + (ω02 − ω 2 )2 ]
where we’ve defined the phase between x(t) and the driving force according to:
ω02 − ω 2 γω
cos(φ) = p sin(φ) = p (10)
(γω)2 + (ω02 − ω 2 )2 (γω) + (ω02 − ω 2 )2
