A lightly damped harmonic oscillator, with a damping force proportional to its speed, is oscillating with an amplitude of 0.500 cm at time t = 0. When t = 8.20 s, the amplitude has died down to 0.400 cm.
 
  At what value of t will the oscillations have an amplitude of 0.250 cm?
  A) 5.13 s B) 16.5 s C) 18.5 s D) 25.5 s E) 20.5 s

Question 2

Three point charges are placed on the x-axis. A charge of +2.0 C is placed at the origin, -2.0 C to the right at x = 50 cm, and +4.0 C at the 100 cm mark.
 
  What are the magnitude and direction of the electrostatic force that acts on the charge at the origin? (k = 1/40 = 8.99  109 N  m2/C2)

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
