Question 1
An object is suspended from a spring that is attached to a fixed point as shown in Fig. 3.1.
Fig. 3.1
The object oscillates vertically with simple harmonic motion about its equilibrium position.
The oscillations of the object are now lightly damped.
Assume that the damping does not change the angular frequency of the oscillations.
On Fig. 3.2, sketch the variation with x of v when the amplitude of the oscillations is 0.060 m .
