    Relationship between surface area and damping coefficient

    [FONT=Tahoma]I have been investigating the damping of an oscillating mass on a spring by a piece of card of varying surface area, in order to work out the damping constant λ for the equation y = A₀ e-λt sin(ωt). I took the natural log of the amplitude of each successive oscillation and plotting...
