A damped mass/spring system takes 14.0 s for its amplitude of the oscillator to decrease by a factor of 9. By what factor does t

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

The correct answer is "0.246".

Explanation:

Given that the amplitude is decreased by a factor of 9, then

$A \rightarrow (A-\frac{A}{9} )$

$A \rightarrow \frac{8A}{9}$

As we know,

Energy will be:

⇒ $E_{1}=\frac{1}{2}KA^2$

and,

⇒ $E_{2}=\frac{1}{2}K(\frac{8A}{9} )^2$

$=\frac{64KA^2}{162}$

⇒ $\Delta E=E_1-E_2$

On putting the estimated values, we get

$=\frac{1}{2}KA^2-\frac{64KA^2}{162}$

⇒ $\frac{\Delta E}{E}=\frac{\frac{20}{162}KA^2}{\frac{1}{2}KA^2}$

$=\frac{40}{162}$

$=0.246$
