What is pure simple harmonic oscillation? Why is it not $100 \%$ possible in practice?

$A$ simple pendulum oscillates in air with time period $T$ and amplitude $A$. As the time passes,

$A$ block of mass $100 \,g$ is connected to an elastic spring of spring constant $450 \,N m^{-1}$ and oscillates vertically. The block-spring system is in a viscous surrounding medium with a damping constant $b = 69.3 \,g \,s^{-1}$. Calculate the time in which the amplitude of oscillations drops to half of its initial value. (Take $\ln 2 = 0.693$) (in $\,s$)

The amplitude of a damped oscillator varies with time as $A(t) = A_0 \exp(-bt / 2m)$, where $b = 70 \text{ g/s}$ and $m = 200 \text{ g}$. How long does it take for the mechanical energy to drop to one-fourth of its initial value (in $s$)? (Take $\ln 2 = 0.7$)

$A$ block of mass $m$ is connected to a light spring of force constant $k$. The system is placed inside a damping medium of damping constant $b$. The instantaneous values of displacement,acceleration and energy of the block are $x, a$ and $E$ respectively. The initial amplitude of oscillation is $A$ and $\omega^{\prime}$ is the angular frequency of oscillations. The incorrect expression related to the damped oscillations is
