In damped SHM, the SI unit of damping constant is

Options:

Answer:

Solution:

In damped SHM, damping force is proportional to the velocity of the oscillator.
$∴$ Damping constant, $b = \frac{F_{d}}{v}$
SI unit of damping constant
$b = \frac{S I u n i t o f f o c e}{S I u n i t o f v e l o c i t y} = \frac{k g . m . s^{2}}{m . s^{- 1}}$
$= k g . s^{- 1} = \frac{k g}{s}$
Hence, the SI unit of damping constant is kg/s.
