A block of mass300g,moving on the end of a spring with force constantk=2.5N/m, is acted on by a damping force Fx=-bvx.for what value of the constantwill the motion be critically damped?

dear ajmeera,

answer for your question:

given data:

maas=300g it is converted into kg i.e 0.3 kg

force constant(k)=2.5N/m

then we find damped constant in critical dampting:

i.e  d=2*squrt(k*m)

       =2*0.866

       =1.7

Approved

Dear student,

d=2*squrt(k*m)

       =2*0.866

       =1.7
