    If you drive a (damped) harmonic oscillator at low frequency, the oscillations will follow the forcing. If the frequency increases the oscillations will start lagging behind, and (if you drive it with a frequency higher than the resonant frequency of the oscillator) they will be exactly out of phase with the forcing.
