Answer #1

All we need to do is find the auxiliary equation for the given differential equation and solve it like a normal quadratic equation. That is the auxiliary equation needs to be solved by either splitting the middle term or by the quadratic formula that is .

If , then the case will be of under damped oscillation. If the case if of over damped oscillation and if it is critically damped oscillation.
