A damped harmonic oscillator of mass m has a natural frequency ω0, and it is tuned so that β = ω0.

a) At t = 0, its position is x0 and its velocity is v0. Find x(t) for t > 0

b)If x0 = 0.2 m and ω0 = 3 s−1 , obtain a condition on v0 necessary for the oscillator to pass through the equilibrium position (x(t) = 0) at a finite time t.

Please Calculate to give actual numbers!! Consider a damped harmonic oscillator. The oscillating mass, m, is 4 kg, the spring constant, k, 16 N/m, and the damping force F is proportional to the velocity (F = -m*alpha*v). If the initial amplitude is 20 cm and falls to half after 6 complete oscilltions, calculate a. the damping cooefficient, alpha, b. the energy "lost" during the first 6 oscilations
