Interchange between Kinetic and Potential Energy
 

Interchange between Kinetic and Potential Energy problem 2


A spring pendulum has a mass of 0.5 kg and a spring constant of . After 15 oscillations, the displacement from the equilibrium position is only a quarter of the initial one.

  • What is the damping coefficient of this oscillation?

  • What is the total energy compared to the initial one?
