A block moving on the end of a spring with force constant ? = 2.5 ?⁄? is acted on by a damping force ?(?) = −??(?)
(a) If the constant b has the value 0.9 kg/s, what is the frequency of oscillation of the block?
(b) For what value of b will the motion be critically damped?
(c) Draw brief sketches and explain the difference between underdamped, critically damped and overdamped oscillations.
