Viscous Damping

It is encountered by bodies moving at moderate speed through liquid. This type of damping leads to a resisting force proportional to the velocity. The damping force

Fd ∞ dx/dt


Fd =cx


‘c’ is the constant of proportionality and is called viscous damping Co-eff. With the dimension of N-S/m
