Damped, Forced Oscillations & Superposition

The damping force of an oscillator is directly proportional to the velocity. The unit of constant of proportionality is

Show answer and solution

Answer: (b)

$F = bv \Rightarrow b = \frac{F}{v}$
Unit: $\frac{\text{kg m s}^{-2}}{\text{m s}^{-1}} = \text{kg s}^{-1}$ , answer (b).
