Question 1
A system has a mass of 3 kg and a spring constant of 12 N/m. If the damping coefficient is 2 kg/s, determine if the system is overdamped, critically damped, or underdamped.
💡 Hint: Compare $\\gamma^2$ to $\\omega_0^2$.
Question 2
An underdamped oscillator's amplitude starts at 10 m and decreases exponentially with a damping coefficient of 0.5 s^-1. Write the equation for its displacement over time.
💡 Hint: Remember how to express underdamped motion in terms of exponential decay.
