A sinusoidally carrying driving force is applied to a damped harmonic oscillator of force constant k and mass m. If the damping constant has a value b1, the amplitude is A1 when the driving angular frequency equals ?(k/m) . In terms of A1, what is the amplitude for the same driving frequency and the same driving force amplitude Fmax, if the damping constant is (a)3b1 and (b)b1/2? The oscillator is now at the resonace condition. If the damping constant b...

A damped harmonic oscillator of mass m has a natural frequency ω0, and it is tuned so that β = ω0. a) At t = 0, its position is x0 and its velocity is v0. Find x(t) for t > 0 b)If x0 = 0.2 m and ω0 = 3 s−1 , obtain a condition on v0 necessary for the oscillator to pass through the equilibrium position (x(t) = 0) at a finite time t.

In Classical Physics, the typical simple harmonic oscillator is a mass attached to a spring. The natural frequency of vibration (radians per second) for a simple harmonic oscillator is given by ω=√k/m and it can vibrate with ANY possible energy whatsoever. Consider a mass of 135 grams attached to a spring with a spring constant of k = 1 N/m. What is the Natural Frequency (in rad/s) of vibration for this oscillator? In Quantum Mechanics, the energy levels of a...

A damped mass-spring oscillator loses 2% of its energy during each cycle. (a) The period is 3.0 s, and the mass is 0.50 kg. What is the value of the damping constant? (b) If the motion is started with an initial amplitude of 0.92 m, how many cycles elapse before the amplitude reduces to 0.75 m?
