An Underdamped Spring-Mass System Consists of a Spring with a Force

Multiple Choice

An underdamped spring-mass system consists of a spring with a force constant of 2.00 N/m and a mass of 550 g. It is observed that the oscillations decrease in magnitude by 10.0% every 360 s. What is the value of the damping constant for the system?

B) 2.16 × 10^-4 Ns/m
C) 11.7 × 10^-4 Ns/m
D) 5.85 × 10^-4 Ns/m
E) 8.95 × 10^-4 Ns/m
