Calculus IV with Applications
3.4.16. A mass m
3 is attached to both a spring with spring constant k
63 and
a dashpot with damping constant c
30. The mass is set in motion with initial posi-
tion x
2 and initial velocity v
2. Find the position function x t and determine
0

whether the motion is overdamped, critically damped, or underdamped. If it is under-
pt
damped, write the position function in the form x t
