A spring oscillator is designed with a mass of 0.223 kg. It operates while immersed in a damping fluid, selected so that the oscillation amplitude decreases to 1.00 % of its initial value in 9.07 s. Determine the damping coefficient b of the system.

The damping coefficient of the system is 0.226.

Explanation:

Given:

Mass kg

Time sec

From the formula of amplitude,

Where

Here amplitude decrease to 1%

So we write,

Here

Where damping coefficient

Therefore, the damping coefficient of the system is 0.226.

the higher the current the higher the mag field around it the higher the influence on the compass

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh

where… mass: measured in kilograms (kg)

gravity: gravity constant on earth = 10.00 m/s2

height: measured in meters (m)

gpe: measured in joules (j) or kilojoules (kj)

how do you solve gpe?

gravitational potential energy (gpe) is the energy an object has because of its position above the. ground.

gpe = mass x gravity constant x height or… gpe = mgh.
