Why damping happens during vibration?

The mechanical system vibrates at one or more of its natural frequencies and damps down to motionlessness. Damped vibration happens when the energy of a vibrating system is gradually dissipated by friction and other resistances, the vibrations are said to be damped.

How to Calculate Damping Factor given Natural Frequency?
