B. It's randomness would increase
Because the Second Law of Thermodynamics states that as energy is transferred or transformed, more and more of it is wasted. It also states that there is a natural tendency of any isolated system to degenerate into a more disordered state.
Answer:
A damped oscillation means an oscillation that fades away with time while Forced oscillations occur when an oscillating system is driven by a periodic force that is external to the oscillating system.
Explanation:
Damping is the reduction in amplitude (energy loss from the system) due to overcomings of external forces like friction or air resistance and other resistive forces. ... When a body oscillates by being influenced by an external periodic force, it is called forced oscillation.

"60 kg" is not a weight. It's a mass, and it's always the same
no matter where the object goes.
The weight of the object is
(mass) x (gravity in the place where the object is) .
On the surface of the Earth,
Weight = (60 kg) x (9.8 m/s²)
= 588 Newtons.
Now, the force of gravity varies as the inverse of the square of the distance from the center of the Earth.
On the surface, the distance from the center of the Earth is 1R.
So if you move out to 5R from the center, the gravity out there is
(1R/5R)² = (1/5)² = 1/25 = 0.04 of its value on the surface.
The object's weight would also be 0.04 of its weight on the surface.
(0.04) x (588 Newtons) = 23.52 Newtons.
Again, the object's mass is still 60 kg out there.

If you have a textbook, or handout material, or a lesson DVD,
or a teacher, or an on-line unit, that says the object "weighs"
60 kilograms, then you should be raising a holy stink.
You are being planted with sloppy, inaccurate, misleading
information, and it's going to be YOUR problem to UN-learn it later.
They owe you better material.
