Video of the damped cantilever spring (305 kB, click here to download Quicktime)
Figure 1: Idealization: spring and
damper
Figure 2: Response of a first-order system to an initial displacement,
the measured data of the video can be compared with this ideal response.
Figure 3: The webcam records the data
as an animation on the screen.
By single stepping through the frames
numerical data can be acquired.
