Damping
 

Damping problem 4


The amplitude of a simple pendulum is measured as a function of time with a detector. The obtained data are shown in the table below.



  • From this data, plot the graph of as a function of time .

  • Read from the graph the type of oscillation of the pendulum.

  • Calculate the angular frequency of the oscillation and the damping coefficient.

  • What is the length of the pendulum?
