Step 1
We are given that the amplitude of an oscillator with a frequency of 200 Hz falls to 1/10 of its initial value after 200 cycles. We need to find the relaxation time (\( \tau \)) and the quality factor (Q) of the oscillator. Show more…

A 200 g oscillator in a vacuum chamber has a frequency of 2.0 Hz. When air is admitted, the oscillation decreases to $60 \%$ of its initial amplitude in 50 s. How many oscillations will have been completed when the amplitude is $30 \%$ of its initial value?
The amplitude of an oscillator having a frequency of 300 oscillations per second reduces to 1/10th of its initial value after 6000 oscillations. Its damping constant is:
