uasi period of the damped motion is 90% greater than the period of the corresponding undamped motion.
1 answer:
Answer:
The value of the damping coefficient γ is (6/19)√29, which is approximately 1.70058.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a certain vibrating system satisfies the equation
u'' + γu' + u = 0
We wish to find the value of the damping coefficient γ for which the quasi period of the damped motion is 90% greater than the period of the corresponding undamped motion.
The period of the undamped motion T is 2π
The quasi period T_d is (4π)/√(4 - γ²)
Since the quasi period is 90% greater than the period of the undamped motion, we have
T_d = 1.9T
So that we can finally obtain
γ as 1.70058.

Answer: Choice A) There must be a vertical asymptote at x = c
Explanation:
The first limit says that as x approaches c from the left side, the f(x) or y values approach negative infinity. So the graph goes down forever as x approaches this c value from the left side.
The limit means that as x approaches c from the right side, the y values head off to positive infinity.
Either of these facts are enough to conclude that we have a vertical asymptote at x = c. We can think of it like an electric fence in which we can get closer to, but not actually touch it.
