Question

What are damped vibrations?

Answer 1

As we know, vibration is nothing but a movement where the object moves back and forth.

1. There are two types of vibration: one is forced vibration and other is free vibration.
2. Damped vibration is a subtype of force vibration.
3. In case of damp vibration, the energy of a vibrating system is gradually dissipated by friction and other resistances.
4. In such a case, the motion of the system is stopped due to the resistance produced by the external force.
