For the damped oscillator shown, m = 1.50 kg, k = 8.00 N/m, and b = 0.230 kg/s. The block is pulled down 12.0 cm and released. How many oscillations does the block make before its amplitude falls to one-third its initial value?
A. 0.785 oscillations
B. 1.05 oscillations
C. 5.26 oscillations
D. 14.3 oscillations
Answer
HRW10e 15.47mod
At what frequency f should a uniform solid disk of radius R, pivoting about an axis a distance d = R from its center (at the disk's edge), be driven to maximize the amplitude of its oscillation?
Answer
answer
A. 611 g
answer
A. function A
If b = 0 then no damping occurs, and the oscillator amplitude and energy remain constant.
answer
C. 5.26 oscillations
