A 10.5-kg object oscillates at the end of a vertical spring that has a spring constant of 1.70 ? 104 N/m. The effect of air resistance is represented by the damping coefficient
b = 3.00 N · s/m.
(a) Calculate the frequency of the damped oscillation.
Hz
(b) By what percentage does the amplitude of the oscillation
decrease in each cycle?
%
(c) Find the time interval that elapses while the energy of the
system drops to 4.00% of its initial value.
