Two damped spring-mass oscillating systems have identical spring constants and decay times. However,system $A$'s mass $m_A$ is twice system $B$'s mass $m_B$. How do their damping constants,$b$,compare?

  • A
    $b_A = 4b_B$
  • B
    $b_A = 2b_B$
  • C
    $b_A = b_B$
  • D
    $b_A = \frac{1}{2}b_B$
