$A$ block of mass $1 \, kg$ attached to a spring is made to oscillate with an initial amplitude of $12 \, cm$. After $2 \, minutes$ the amplitude decreases to $6 \, cm$. Determine the value of the damping constant $b$ for this motion. (Take $\ln 2 = 0.693$)

The amplitude of vibration of a particle is given by $a_m = \frac{a_0}{a\omega^2 - b\omega + c}$,where $a_0, a, b,$ and $c$ are positive constants. The condition for a single resonant frequency is:

In damped oscillations,the damping force is directly proportional to the speed of the oscillator. If the amplitude becomes half of its initial value $A_0$ in $1 \, s$,then after $2 \, s$,the amplitude will be:

$A$ block of mass $200 \, g$ is executing $SHM$ under the influence of a spring with spring constant $K = 90 \, N \, m^{-1}$ and a damping constant $b = 40 \, g \, s^{-1}$. The time elapsed for its amplitude to drop to half of its initial value is ...... $s$ (Given $\ln \frac{1}{2} = -0.693$).

The amplitude of a damped oscillator varies with time as $A(t) = A_0 \exp(-bt / 2m)$,where $b = 70 \text{ g/s}$ and $m = 200 \text{ g}$. How long does it take for the mechanical energy to drop to one-fourth of its initial value (in $s$)? (Take $\ln 2 = 0.7$)
