A 350 g mass on a 45-cm-long string is released at an angle of 4.5° from vertical. It has a damping constant of 0.010 kg/s. After 25 s, how many oscillations has it completed?

Answer:

The value is  [tex]n = 18.5 \ oscillations[/tex]

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The mass is  [tex]m = 350 \ g = 0.350 \ kg[/tex]

   The length is  [tex]L = 45 \ cm = 0.45 \ m[/tex]

    The angle is  [tex]\theta = 4.5^o[/tex]

    The damping constant is  [tex]b = 0.010 \ kg/s[/tex]

    The time taken is [tex]t = 25 \ s[/tex]

Generally the angular frequency of this damped oscillation is mathematically evaluated as

     [tex]w = \sqrt{ \frac{ g}{L} + \frac{b^2}{4m^2} }[/tex]  

=>   [tex]w = \sqrt{ \frac{9.80 }{ 0.45} + \frac{0.010 ^2}{4* 0.350^2} }[/tex]  

=>   [tex]w = 4.667 \ s^{-1}[/tex]

Generally the period of the oscillation is mathematically represented as

      [tex]T = \frac{2 \pi }{w}[/tex]  

=>  [tex]T = \frac{2 * 3.142 }{ 4.667 }[/tex]

=>  [tex]T = 1.35 \ s[/tex]

Generally the number of oscillation is mathematically represented as

        [tex]n = \frac{t}{T}[/tex]

=>     [tex]n = \frac{25}{1.35}[/tex]

=>     [tex]n = 18.5 \ oscillations[/tex]
