Which of the following statements about damped oscillators, if any, is false? O A. All of the statements are true. OB. Weak damping (o « wo) does not greatly affect the system's oscillation frequency w. OC. Energy is always conserved when there is no damping. OD. A larger damping constant, b, causes the oscillations to damp more quickly. O E. The equation for a damped oscillator is the same as for an (undamped) harmonic oscillator but with an added exponential decay function, e-b/2m, to account for damping. OF. Decreasing the damping constant, b, will make the oscillations last longer.
