If my derivation is correct W/O confounding approximations, addingThe question is ill-posed. The situation is underspecified several
mass to a driven pendulum causes a decrease in amplitude.
Horologists have long known that adding mass does not increase the Q,
at least in their experience. More correctly, that is, if I’m
correct, it at least decreases the amplitude, the opposite of what an
increase in Q would cause.
