Question

Give one example of damped vibrations.

Answer 1

Damped vibration:

1. Damped vibration is a subtype of force vibration.
2. In case of damp vibration, the energy of a vibrating system is gradually dissipated by friction and other resistances.
3. In such a case, the motion of the system is stopped due to the resistance produced by the external formce.
4. Some common examples of damped vibration are shock absorbers used in cars and carpet pads.
