JEE Mains · Physics · STD 11 - 13. oscillations

The amplitude of a damped oscillator decreases to \(0.9\) times its original magnitude in \(5\ s\). In another \(10\ s\) it will decrease to \(\alpha \) times its original magnitude, where  \(\alpha \) equals

  1. A \(0.6\)
  2. B \(0.7\)
  3. C \(0.81\)
  4. D \(0.73\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(0.73\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(\because A=A_{0} e^{-\frac{b t}{2 m}}\left(\text { where }, A_{0}=\text { maximum amplitude }\right)\) \( According \,to \,the\, questions,\, after\, 5\, second, \) \(0.9 \mathrm{A}_{0}=\mathrm{A}_{0} \mathrm{e}^{-\frac{\mathrm{b}(5)}{2 \mathrm{m}}}\) \(...(i)\)…
