DAMPED OSCILLATIONS AND MECHANICAL WAVES

Question 1

When the motion of an oscillator reduces due to an external force, the oscillator and its motion are damped

Answer 1

Damped Harmonic Motion

Question 2

Answer 2

Frictional forces

Question 3

Is the force that acts on the objects to complete the oscillation

Answer 3

Damping Force

Question 4

Is a wave that is not calable of transmitting its energy through a vacuum.

Answer 4

Mechanical Waves

Question 5

Is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction perpendicular to the direction that wave moves.

Answer 5

Transverse Waves

Question 6

Is a wave in which particles of the medium move in a direction parallel to the direction that wave moves.

Answer 6

Longitudinal Waves
