Physics

A 11.9-kg object oscillates at the end of a vertical spring thathas a spring constant of 1.80 ✕ 104 N/m. The effect ofair 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 oscillationdecrease in each cycle?
%

(c) Find the time interval that elapses while the energy of thesystem drops to 3.00% of its initial value.
