To find:
a. An equation that relates the displacement of the object from its rest position after seconds and to graph the equation found in part (a) for 5 oscillations using a graphing utility.
Answer to Problem 42AYU
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Formula used:
The displacement of an oscillating object from its at–rest position at time is given by , where is the damping factor or damping coefficient and m is the mass of the oscillating object. Here |a| is the displacement at , and is the period under simple harmonic motion (no damping).
Calculation:
Graph of
The graph for is plotted above using the graphing tool.
