Non bounded ODE solution
$begingroup$
Find the value of $w ge0$ so that the ODE below doesn't have a bounded solution
$$y''+y=cos(wt)$$
My attempt:
The solution should be in the form
$y(t)=Asin(wt)+Bcos(wt)$
$y'(t)=Awcos(wt)-Bwsin(wt)$
$y''(t)=-Aw^2sin(wt)-Bw^2cos(wt)$
So $(1): -Aw^2sin(wt)-Bw^2cos(wt)+Asin(wt)+Bcos(wt)=cos(wt)$
$Asin(wt)(1-w^2)+Bcos(wt)(1-w^2)=cos(wt)$ $Rightarrow A=0$ and $B=frac{1}{1-w^2}$
Thus $y(t)=frac{1}{1-w^2}cos(wt)$
Since $cosx$ is bounded for every $xin mathbb{R}$ does that mean that $w=1$ so that the solution is not bounded? Does not bounded means not defined in this case? Or am I very wrong?

Your solution gives a particular solution, but not the whole solution. You have to add the solution to the corresponding homogeneous equation $y''+y=0$, which is easily seen to be $c_1 cos(t) + c_2 sin(t)$. Hence, $$y(t)=c_1 cos(t) + c_2 sin(t) + frac{1}{1-w^2}cos(wt)$$
But this is still bounded for all $t$. However, notice that this solution is valid for $w neq 1$, but not for $w=1$ since you would obtain $0=cos(wt)$ when you plug derivatives back into the differential equation if $w=1$.
For $w=1$, you may guess the solution to be of the form $A cos(t) + B sin(t)$, but it can't be since these are already included in the solution to the homogeneous equation. The strategy here is to assume the solution has the form $A t cos(t) + B t sin(t)$. Then,
$$begin{cases} y=At sin(t)+Bt cos(t) \ y'=At cos(t)+B cos(t)-Bt sin(t) +A sin(t) \ y''= -Bt cos(t)+2A cos(t)-Atsin(t)-2B sin(t) end{cases}$$
$$implies left( -Bt cos(t)+2A cos(t)-Atsin(t)-2B sin(t) right) + left( At sin(t)+Bt cos(t) right) = cos(t)$$
$$implies 2A cos(t) - 2B sin(t) = cos(t) implies begin{cases} A=frac{1}{2} \ B =0 end{cases}$$
So we obtain the full solution for when $w=1$ as
$$y(t)=c_1 cos(t) + c_2 sin(t) + frac12tsin(t)$$
which you can see is unbounded.

Thank you for your comment! $y(t)=c_1cos(t)+c_2sin(t)+frac{1}{2}tsin(t)$ is unbounded because $t$ can take any value right?

Compare the solution provided to that obtained by use of the Laplace transform. Using $y(t) to y(s)$ and $y''(t) to s^2 , y(s) - y'(0) - y(0) , s$ then
begin{align}
s^2 , y(s) - y'(0) - y(0) , s + y(s) &= frac{s}{s^2 + omega^2} \
y(s) &= frac{y'(0)}{s^2 + 1} + frac{y(0) , s}{s^2 + 1} + frac{s}{(s^2 +1)(s^2 + omega^2)} \
y(t) &= y(0) , cos(t) + y'(0) , sin(t) - frac{cos(t) - cos(omega t)}{1-omega^2} \
&= left( y(0) -frac{1}{1-omega^2} right) , cos(t) + y'(0) , sin(t) + frac{cos(omega t)}{1- omega^2}.
end{align}
This solution is in agreement with that of the proposer and the Laplace transform used is
$$y(s) = int_{0}^{infty} e^{- s t} , y(t) , dt.$$

$$begin{cases} y=At sin(t)+Bt cos(t) \ y'=At cos(t)+B cos(t)-Bt sin(t) +A sin(t) \ y''= -Bt cos(t)+2A cos(t)-Atsin(t)-2B sin(t) end{cases}$$
$$implies left( -Bt cos(t)+2A cos(t)-Atsin(t)-2B sin(t) right) + left( At sin(t)+Bt cos(t) right) = cos(t)$$
$$implies 2A cos(t) - 2B sin(t) = cos(t) implies begin{cases} A=frac{1}{2} \ B =0 end{cases}$$
So we obtain the full solution for when $w=1$ as
$$y(t)=c_1 cos(t) + c_2 sin(t) + frac12tsin(t)$$
which you can see is unbounded.
