17.3.1 Damping – Check yourself

Submit quiz
Once you submit, you will no longer be able to change your answers. Are you sure you want to submit the quiz?
1.
In a lightly damped oscillation the amplitude
decreases exponentially
decreases linearly
stays constant
increases
2.
Which type of damping returns the system to equilibrium in the shortest time without oscillating?
Light
Zero
Heavy
Critical
3.
The amplitude of a damped oscillator halves. Its energy becomes
half
an eighth
a quarter
unchanged
4.
A car's suspension is designed for
no damping
light damping
approximately critical damping
very heavy damping
5.
A damped oscillator's amplitude falls from 10.0 cm to 8.0 cm in one cycle. After a second cycle with the same fractional loss it is
6.0 cm
6.4 cm
6.8 cm
4.0 cm
6.
The main effect of light damping on the period is that
it is almost unchanged
it halves
it doubles
it falls to zero
