The image depicts a simplified single-degree-of-freedom model of a skyscraper, where the mass of the building (105 kg) is supported by two pillars representing the bending stiffness (stiffness k = 3.519 x 106 N/m). During an earthquake, the ground displacement has an amplitude of 0.1 m and a frequency of 7.5 rad/s. Calculate the displacement amplitude of the top of the skyscraper in such an earthquake scenario.

A 2.50-kg object is attached to a spring with a force constant of 4.50 N/m. The object rests on a horizontal surface that has a viscous, oily substance spread evenly on it. The object is pulled 15.0 cm to the right of the equilibrium position and set into harmonic motion. After ?1=2.00 s the amplitude has fallen to 7.00 cm due to frictional losses in the oil. Calculate the damping constant ? for the oil.

2. A damped harmonic oscillator consists of a block (m = 2.00 kg), a spring (k = 10.0 N/m), and a damping force (F = –bv). Initially, it oscillates with an amplitude of 25.0 cm; because of the damping, the amplitude falls to three-fourths of this initial value at the completion of four oscillations.
