A coil of spring stiffness 4 N/mm supports vertically a mass of 20 kg at the free end. The motion is resisted by the oil dashpot. It is found that the amplitude at the beginning of the fourth cycle is 0.8 times the amplitude of the previous vibration. Determine the damping force per unit velocity. Also find the ratio of the frequency of damped'and undamped vibrations.

A coil of spring stiffness 4 N/mm supports
vertically a mass of 20 kg at the free end. The
motion is resisted by the oil dashpot. It is found
that the amplitude at the beginning of the fourth
cycle is 0.8 times the amplitude of the previous
vibration. Determine the damping force per unit
velocity. Also find the ratio of the frequency of
damped 'and undamped vibrations.
