Displacement, Amplitude, Period and Frequency
 

Displacement, Amplitude, Period and Frequency problem 30


While observing a pendulum on a coil spring weighing 1 kg, the time taken for 10 oscillations is 10 s.

  • What is the spring coefficient of this pendulum?

  • If the amplitude of oscillation of the pendulum drops by 5 % with each oscillation, what is its damping coefficient?

  • If the initial maximum displacement of the pendulum is 10 cm, what is its displacement after 10 oscillations?

  • What is the total energy at the beginning of the oscillation?

  • What is the total energy after 10 oscillations?
