Hi, I'm trying to build up a mass spring system, which is damp by a small steelball lowered into a buck containing soap mixture. Where the viscosity has been measured and we have calculated the flow arround the ball to be rather laminar (Reynold<1). But our data shows a damping around the double of our theoretical. My question is which influence will the Archimedes' principle of buoyancy have on our steelball and damping? Can the ekstra damping be explained by this force? And how will the buoyancy effect curve af the damp harmonic oscillation when it's only a force of one direktion..?
