Question:

The 4-kg cylinder is attached to a viscous damper and to the spring of stiffness k = 800 N/m. If the cylinder is released from rest at time t = 0 from the position where it is displaced a distance y = 100 mm from its equilibrium position, plot the displacement y as a function of time for the first second for the two cases where the viscous damping coefficient is 

(a) c = 124 N∙s/m. 

(b) c = 80 N∙s/m.
