Question

Which of the following statements are true?A. The decrease in the amplitude of an oscillation caused by dissipative forces is called damping. B. The increase in amplitude of an oscillation by a driving force is called forced oscillation. C. In a mechanical system, the amplitude of an oscillation diminishes with time unless the lost mechanical energy is replaced. D. An oscillation that is maintained by a driving force is called forced oscillation.

Answer 1

Answer:

right A, B, C, D

Explanation:

They ask which statements are true

A) Right. The decrease in amplitude is due to the dissipation of energy by friction and is called damping

B) Right. In resonant processes the amplitude of the oscillation increases, being a forced oscillation

C) Right. In a system with energy loss, the amplitude must decrease, therefore energy must be supplied to compensate for the loss.

D) Right. It is a resonant process the driving force keeps the oscillation of the system
