$A$ steady force of $120 \ N$ is required to push a boat of mass $700 \ kg$ through water at a constant speed of $1 \ m/s$. If the boat is fastened by a spring and held at $2 \ m$ from the equilibrium position by a force of $450 \ N$,find the angular frequency of damped $SHM$ in $rad/s$.

Write the expression for the mechanical energy of a damped oscillator.

What is the amplitude of a damped oscillator if time becomes $t = 2m$?

The amplitude of a damped harmonic oscillator becomes half in $3 \ s$ and will become $1/x$ of the initial amplitude in the next $6 \ s$,where $x$ is:

The amplitude of a mass-spring system,which is executing simple harmonic motion,decreases with time. If mass $m = 500 \, g$,and the decay constant $b = 20 \, g/s$,then how much time $t$ (in seconds) is required for the amplitude of the system to drop to half of its initial value? (Given $\ln 2 = 0.693$)

$A$ spring-mass system executes damped harmonic oscillations given by the equation $y = A e^{-\frac{bt}{2m}} \sin(\omega' t + \phi)$,where the symbols have their usual meanings. If a $2 \ kg$ mass $(m)$ is attached to a spring of force constant $(K) = 1250 \ N/m$,the period of the oscillation is $(\pi / 12) \ s$. The damping constant $b$ has the value ..... $kg/s$.
