C.4.6—Types of damping question 1
[Maximum number: 2]
W in (a) is immersed in a beaker of oil. As a result of this immersion the oscillations of W are critically damped. Describe what is meant by critically damped.
(the frictional force on W is such that) motion rapidly dies away/rapidly stops/stops in the minimum time; without completing an oscillation / without overshooting (equilibrium position);
