(N/A) For a damped harmonic oscillator,the equation of motion is given by $m \frac{d^2x}{dt^2} + b \frac{dx}{dt} + kx = 0$.
The amplitude of a damped oscillation decreases exponentially with time and is given by $A(t) = A_0 e^{-bt/2m}$,where $A_0$ is the initial amplitude,$b$ is the damping constant,$m$ is the mass,and $t$ is time.
The angular frequency of the damped oscillation is given by $\omega' = \sqrt{\frac{k}{m} - \left(\frac{b}{2m}\right)^2}$,where $k$ is the spring constant.

The amplitude of a damped oscillator decreases to $0.9$ times its original magnitude in $5 \ s$. In another $10 \ s$ it will decrease to $\alpha$ times its original magnitude,where $\alpha$ equals

If a simple pendulum has significant amplitude (up to a factor of $1/e$ of original) only in the period between $t = 0 \ s$ to $t = \tau \ s$,then $\tau$ may be called the average life of the pendulum. When the spherical bob of the pendulum suffers a retardation (due to viscous drag) proportional to its velocity with $b$ as the constant of proportionality,the average life time of the pendulum is (assuming damping is small) in seconds:
