Calculating Damping Coefficient for Spring Length 36.3mm, Load Mass 0.036kg

[bjw1311]

Homework Statement

I want to find the damping coefficient of a spring of free length 36.3mm, with load mass of 0.036kg.

Homework Equations

i need the amplitude of this system, i have the angular frequency, but not the damping ratio. So i was trying to use the formula:

damping ratio = c/2*sqrt(km)

where k is the spring constant, m the mass of the system and c the damping coefficient. But i have no idea how to find this coefficient! help please!

You might have an easier time getting a response if you write a clearer problem statement; one that describes the entire problem, including all variables and given/known data.
