A mass weighing 8 lb stretches a spring 1/2 foot. Then mass is initially released from rest at a point 1

foot above the equilibrium.

a) Solve the equation of motion with no damping.

Use the same spring system and initial conditions as in Problem above. The spring system is now placed in

a medium that offers a damping force equal to 2 times the instantaneous velocity.

b) Solve the equation of motion

c) At what time does the mass go downward through the equilibrium for the first time?
