Question: A vibrating system consisting of a mass of 2.267 kg and a spring of stiffness 17.5 N/cm is viscously damped such that the ratio of any two consecutive amplitudes is 1.00 and 0.98. Determine
(a) the natural frequency of the damped system,
(b) the logarithmic decrement,
(c) the damping factor, and
(d) the damping coefficient.
